Image Processing

  • camera
    • simple webcam!
  • method
    • attach laptop to iRobot
    • receive signal from robot when it has arrived in room
    • use laptop to take image
    • process image to determine whether or not a window is open
  • to-do:

-figure out physical orientation of computer/camera

-build training set: every possible window configuration

-figure out how to get the images... opencv documentation: http://opencv.willowgarage.com/documentation/cpp/features2d_common_interfaces_of_feature_detectors.html, http://opencv.willowgarage.com/wiki/CameraCapture

-decide on preprocessing method: threshhold, line detection, contrast upping, pulling out the windows, or doing none of that and trusting the neural net.

-figure out how to get the command module to tell comp when to take a picture

-get the neural net trained and tested


  • Active Thoughts:

-RoboRealm seems sweeeeell.

interface with MATLAB: http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/22882

-current plan-ish:

roborealm does processing and recieve signals from command module via serial port, then sends processed images ot matlab for NN classification. BOOM.
