Using Color Vision for R/C Car Control
The project was to build a color vision system to control small remote control cars. Using a color camera the position and orientation of the car could be determined. A waypoint is sent to the TI 6713 DSK through a serial port where the 6713 DSP uses a simple control algorithm to try to move the car to the spot. A summary of the 3 major parts of the project are linked below.
