Detection and Implementation Autonomous Target Tracking with a Quadrotor AR.Drone

摘要

Nowadays, There Are Many Robotic Applications Being Developed to Do Tasks Autonomously without Any Interactions or Commands from Human, Therefore, Developing a System Which Enables a Robot to Do Surveillance Such as Detection and Tracking of a Moving Object Will Lead Us to More Advanced Tasks Carried out by Robots in the Future, AR.Drone Is a Flying Robot Platform That Is Able to Take Role as UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle), Usage of Computer Vision Algorithm Such as Hough Transform Makes It Possible for Such System to Be Implemented on AR.Drone, in This Research, the Developed Algorithm Is Able to Detect and Track an Object with Certain Shape, then the Algorithm Is Successfully Implemented on AR.Drone Quadcopter for Detection and Tracking.
