ABOUT GRAHAM DEACON
I have experience of the following-Programming a number of different industrial robotsDesign and construction of an inherently force-controllable (backdrivable) direct-drive robot armDesign and construction of a force-reflecting joystick using limited angle torque motorsBilateral control of a force controlled robot arm and force-reflecting joystickRobot kinematic calibrationError recovery in rigid body assembly by robotSpecification of rigid body robot assembly tasks in terms of how applied forces and torques should be variedUsing a centre of compliance to generate force-guided robot behaviourSensorless part manipulation based on quasi-static analysis of contact mechanicsRobot assembly task specification from automated skill-acquisitionImage processingCharacter recognitionVisual inspectionDevelopment of robot guidance algorithms that use striping laser sensory information (i.e. 2D profile information)Visual servoing of a robot armCamera calibrationImage registration (2D and 3D)3D computer vision based on the epipolar geometry of multiple views (stereo vision)Bundle adjustmentCalibration of range cameras using 3D reconstruction3D computer vision using range images and point cloudsVision sensor to robot (i.e. hand-eye) calibrationSpecialties:* Team leader* Technical lead* Product research and development
