Design and Development of Automated Intelligent Robot Using OpenCV

Abstract

With the development in technology, Areas related to robotics and computer vision have become more popular. Automatic vision based robots are intelligent robots which captures visual data, process it and delivers an appropriate output. These robots require less human intervention as it is pre-fed with instructions. An efficient approach is used to capture and process the images. Open source computer vision (Open CV) is used for real time capturing the image and Raspberry Pi for its processing. Image is captured on the bases of Hue, saturation and color value range. Numerous Open CV library functions are used for loading the image, framing the image and differentiating images on the basis of HSV value. The aim is to construct a model that can recognize sign boards and take appropriate path leading towards the destination.
