Kinematics-based approaches suffer from accumulated errors due to the cable- driven nature of robotic arms, while vision-based methods often rely on external markers or trackers. Although more recent vision-based advances have been pro- posed, these two-stage pose…","published":"2026-09-28T04:00:00Z","seen":"2026-09-28T04:35:47Z","lang":"en","source":{"id":"kite-arxiv-org-1637f0","name":"arxiv.org","domain":"rss.arxiv.org"},"via":"kite-arxiv-org-1637f0","topics":["photonics","cs.cv"],"authors":["Lucy Fothergill, Pietro Valdastri, Dominic Jones, Duygu Sarikaya"],"entities":[{"id":"Q1328288","name":"Pico","type":"other"}],"story":"st_3f6rcx2y56ldukrwcj7a","category":"science-technology","category_p":0.7799999713897705,"sentiment":"neutral","tone":0.07000000029802322,"political":0.03999999910593033}]}
