Robotics-Computer Vision Laboratory

这个项目将为本科生提供一个使用先进机器人系统的机会。学院将额外购置5台HERO Jr.机器人、10台数码相机和10台主机。这些机器人将用于测试用于控制运动、转向、语音合成、超声波换能器以及机器人与主机之间通信协议的接口软件。数码相机将用于演示计算机视觉中的主题，如灰度成像、图像重建、边界和边缘检测以及运动检测。主机将用于编写、组装和保存为机器人编写的程序。它还将用于通过机器人显示来自摄像机的重建图像。这个机器人-计算机视觉实验室将为学生准备一个实际的工业环境，并将鼓励他们继续研究生工作。

This project will provide undergraduate students with an opportunity to work with advanced robotic systems. The College will acquire five additional HERO Jr. robots, ten digital cameras and ten host computers. The robots will be used to test interface software written to control locomotion, steering, speech synthesis, ultrasonic transducers, and communication protocols between the robot and a host computer. The digital cameras will be used to demonstrate topics in computer vision such as gray level imaging, image reconstruction, boundary and edge detection, and motion detection. The host computer will be used to write, assemble, and save programs written for the robot. It will also be used to display the reconstructed images coming from the camera via the robot. This robotic-computer vision lab will prepare the students for an actual industrial environment and will encourage them to pursue graduate work.
