Computer vision enables robots to interpret camera images, detect visual features, and respond through movement or other actions. In practice, it connects camera hardware with software running on Linux and Python. section 1.3.4 section 1.1
A practical computer-vision workflow can combine:
- Camera input from a Raspberry Pi Camera Module. section 1.3.3
- OpenCV processing to detect QR codes and decode their contents. section 10.0
- Video-stream handling that lets multiple applications inspect or display live camera data. section 10.0
- Robot control that turns recognized visual targets into navigation behavior. section 10.0
QR-code finder
A mobile robot can inspect its surroundings for QR codes, identify a matching code, and move to the associated object. A Motion JPEG server can simultaneously provide a live view through a web application. section 10.0
Use the hardware overview to connect visual perception with the robot’s camera, movement hardware, and surrounding environment. section 1.1
