Fast Color-Independent Ball Detection for Mobile Robots
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a novel scheme for fast color invariant ball detection in the RoboCup context. Edge filtered camera images serve as an input for an Ada Boost learning procedure that constructs a cascade of classification and regression trees (CARTs). Our system is capable to detect different soccer balls in the RoboCup and other environments. The resulting approach for object classification is real-time capable and reliable.

Effective Mechatronic Models and Methods for Implementation an Autonomous Soccer Robot
Omni directional mobile robots have been popularly employed in several applications especially in soccer player robots considered in Robocup competitions. However, Omni directional navigation system, Omni-vision system and solenoid kicking mechanism in such mobile robots have not ever been combined. This situation brings the idea of a robot with no head direction into existence, a comprehensi...
متن کاملMotion detection by a moving observer using Kalman filter and neural network in soccer robot
In many autonomous mobile applications, robots must be capable of analyzing motion of moving objects in their environment. Duringmovement of robot the quality of images is affected by quakes of camera which cause high errors in image processing outputs. In thispaper, we propose a novel method to effectively overcome this problem using Neural Networks and Kalman Filtering theory. Thistechnique u...
متن کاملLandmark design and real-time landmark tracking for mobile robot localization
For the fast and accurate self-localization of mobile robots, landmarks can be used very efficiently in the complex workspace. In this paper, we propose a simple color landmark model for self-localization and a fast landmark detection and tracking algorithm based on the proposed landmark model. We develop a color landmark with a symmetric and repetitive structure, which shows invariant color hi...

The recognition of colored objects is very important for robot vision in RoboCup Middle Size League competition. This paper describes an efficient hybrid vision system developed for the robotic soccer team of the University of Aveiro, CAMBADA (Cooperative Autonomous Mobile roBots with Advanced Distributed Architecture). The hybrid vision system integrates an omnidirectional and a perspective ca...
متن کاملA Ball Is Not Just Orange: Using Color and Luminance to Classify Regions of Interest
In soccer, the ball is the one object on the field that a player must attend to at all times. If a player looses track of the ball position, it cannot continue play but must search for it. For this reason, the ball in RoboCupSoccer is colored in orange, which makes it possible to localize it in camera images by classifying individual pixels to color classes. This simple approach has several pro...
