In the study, we propose a novel adaptive visual servoing control scheme for robotic manipulators with kinematic and dynamic uncertainties, where the camera used is uncalibrated, which implies that its intrinsic and extrinsic parameters are unavailable for measurement. For our scheme, a depth-independent composite Jacobian matrix is constructed to make visual parameters and robotic physical parameters appear linearly in a parametrized uniform form so that an adaptive algorithm can be developed to estimate their values. With the raised adaptive algorithm, the potential singularity of the Jacobian matrix can be well circumvented by updating estimated parameters in an appropriate tiny range of actual values. With our scheme, the asymptotic convergence of the image tracking error to zero is established successfully, in addition to the signal boundedness of the closed-loop system. The effectiveness of the proposed scheme is confirmed by simulation results based on a 6-DOF PUMA manipulator.
