Abstract:
This project applied image-processing technique to design the straight-line
tracking mobile robot application by designing two algorithms, which are, straightline
detection and motor control algorithms. In the straight-line detection algorithm,
the camera will be captured and sent the image of straight-line pathway to MATLAB.
Valuable information will be extracted from the image. In this process the
information will be used to control mobile robot in motor control algorithm
application. The accuracy of the straight-line mobile robot’s movement is depends
on these algorithms. Based on the result, accuracy of the straight-line mobile robot
algorithms have been proven high due to small differences between actual and
average degrees. The motor control algorithm has been proven accurate in recover
mobile robot’s path. These algorithms also have been implemented in the graphical
user interface and are fully used to control the mobile robot.
