Detecting the Grid #17

Open klaki892 opened 7 years ago

klaki892 commented 7 years ago

One of the most key essential tasks to this project, is the code that will detect the gridlines and recognize them as gridlines.

This is a computer vision coding task that, when given an image, identify what is a gridline in the picture.

This code will go towards detecting how far away objects are from Ridley , by addressing how far away a certain quadrant is based on the number of gridlines from the Ridley amongst other calculations.

Have a look at our IGVC vision for some examples of finding lines. You might not really need to keep track of every line and do measurements and whatnot since you can use a reactive planner that simply moves towards an object until it shows you're there, rather than a deliberative one that says "go x distance and we'll be exactly on top of it".

It'll probably be a hybrid of the method you described. You're right we dont have to keep track of every line, if we using movement logic that you described. At worse we have to keep track of the outer boundary lines and if the roombas are outside of those. (can't exactly go chasing roombas outside of the playing area)
