Abstract
The previous chapters have dealt solely with the data acquisition aspect of sensory feedback, that is they described how to obtain the sensory data (which will be referred to as the ‘image data’) and how to interface the transducer or sensor to the robot control computer. This image data must, however, be processed in order to extract the required object parameters and supply them to the robot controller so that the necessary action can be planned, thus closing the sensory feedback loop, as shown in Figure 8.1.
