Application of Shape Recognition Algorithms for a Robotic Test Bed

Abstract

Machine vision has become an important area of research in the application of robotics to commercial and military systems. Progress in this area offers an economic benefit to the automated factory as well as the automated battlefield of the future. The algorithms discussed here are the baseline technologies that will be expanded to provide real time vision capability. Keywords: Fourier descriptors, Feature extraction, Moments, Segmentation, Calibration, Polygonal approximation, Machine vision, Shape recognition algorithms.
