To solve the control problem of continuum robot for aiming and tracking the external targetwith visual perception, a visual servoing based autonomous continuum robot has been designed and de-veloped by Professor Peng Haijun�s team from Dalian University of Technology. It has been recognized as the autonomous continuum robot that hits the moving target center for the longest distance after strict on-site certification by the World Record Certification (WRCA); the longest tracking distance is 30.129 m.
