Robot Floor-Tiling Control Method Based on Finite-State Machine and Visual Measurement in Limited FOV by Shun Wang, Huixing Zhou, Zhongyue Zhang, Xiaoyu Zheng, Yannan Lv

“…This paper proposes a robot floor-tiling control strategy based on visual measurement feedback and finite-state machine, in which the calculation of tile position information in limited field of vision is obtained by an improved Canny edge detection and a Hough linear transformation. Moreover, an algorithm for complementing tile position information based on visual measurement is proposed, and the quality of tile laying is evaluated online. …”
