The one of the
features of mobile robot control is to detect and to identify objects in
workspace. Especially, autonomous systems must detect obstacles and then revise
actual trajectories according to new conditions. Hence, many solutions and
approaches can be found in literature. Different sensors and cameras are used
to solve problem by many researchers. Different type sensors usage can affect
not only system performance but also operational cost. In this study, single
camera based obstacle detection and identification algorithm was developed to
control omni-drive mobile robot systems. Objects and obstacles, which are in
robot view, are detected and identified their coordinates by using developed
algorithms dynamically. Developed algorithm was tested on Festo Robotino mobile
robot. Proposed approach offers not only cost efficiency but also short process
time.
