Efficient robot tracking system using single-image-based object detection and position estimation

摘要

This study proposes a mother-slave robot tracking system that identifies the target, predicts its location, and tracks it based on a single image. The proposed system utilizes a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) for object detection, to identify the target robot. The distance and angle between the robots are then calculated through linear regression analysis, which offers a more efficient and cost-effective solution than traditional methods. The performance of the system was evaluated, resulting in an accuracy of 99.59% for object detection, and an average distance error of 2.04% for the estimated location.
