Practice of the Technical Education Program for High School Students using a Autonomous Robot with Small Stereo Vision System

Abstract

This paper shows a technical education program for high school students, which consists of image information processing, stereo vision technology and control experiments of a mobile robot with the stereo vision system. Education results show that this technical education program can give excellent effect to obtain both hardware and software technology and also to obtain control experiences of actual robots. In addition, this program has the possibility to give the high school students an interesting experience of both constructing a robot and its programming, that is certified by questionnaires of the students after the program. Finally, these education results indicate that this education program is an effective education system for high school students to obtain system technology including software and hardware technology.
