In order to address this issue, a closed loop control law is proposed that simultaneously accomplishes a visual servoing task and is robust to a general class of image processing errors. This is achieved with the application of widely accepted statistical techniques such as robust M-estimation and LMedS. Experimental results are presented which demonstrate visual servoing tasks that resist severe outlier contamination %U http://www.irisa.fr/lagadic/pdf/2006_ieee_tro_comport.pdf %U http://dx.doi.org/10.1109/TRO.2006.870666 %8 April %D 2006
