n this project, the main objective was to make an object tracking system. The goal was
finally achieved, not exactly as we wanted, but finally achieved and the system is operational
anyway.
First, we had to learn about those new technologies and understand its fundamentals.
Then start the development et the tests.
In the beginning, we wanted to develop a human tracking system, which can be used in
surveillance and many other applications. But given our limitations in terms of available
hardware, we had to change our project and adapt several times. The size of the robot forced
us to abandon the "human" part of the project and replace the target with another one with an
adapted size. We also planned to use some techniques (deep learning) in our models, but
again, the hardware did not allow us.
This project allowed us to improve our technical skills by discovering the field of
artificial intelligence and its subfields, the python programming language, the Raspberry Pi
development platform and the i2c communication bus. It also allowed us to learn to work in a
group, to distribute tasks well and to be complementary.
There are several improvements that can be added to this robot. First by solving the
already mentioned problems. Then, by adding for example a lidar sensor which will allow the
robot to do some mapping and planification, which will make it even more autonomous. |
