Abstract
A novel visual servoing structure is presented for robot positioning under an eye-to-hand camera configuration using panoramic vision. The proposed algorithm is based upon Image-Based Visual Servoing (IBVS) and uses only one fixed camera in conjunction with a stationary flat mirror. A single landmark mounted on the robot's end-effector along with its mirror reflection provide enough information for 3D reasoning based on a 2D image when viewed by a camera. The equations describing the relationship between the velocity of the coordinate frame attached to the robot's end-effector and rate of change in image features called the image Jacobian are presented. A novel set of image features that yields a rank-efficient image Jacobian is introduced. The Visual servoing based on an online estimation of the image Jacobian using a Kalman Filter (KF) is also presented. Simulated and experimental results illustrate the robustness of the proposed visual servoing structure. Sensitivity tests and analysis conducted through numerous experimentations show promising results.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
