Application of vision systems to the navigation of mobile robots using markers

摘要

The paper presents a vision system for navigation a mobile robot using markers. This is done by identifying the location of the object in space by means of a marker that has been detected. The first stage of the algorithm is calibration of the camera using a checker board and read the calibration parameters. The next step is to detect the marker and then determine its actual location. Parameters of detected objects can be used to control vehicle movement. The image processing algorithms included in the OpenCV library were used.
