| dcterms.abstract | In our country and on all over the world, there is an increase in the number of robot competitions and competitors. Sumo Robot Challenge is one of these categories, and it also has some subcategories. Team Sumo is a new alternative to Sumo Robot. In Team Sumo, two robots (friends) are sumo-wrestling against a single rival robot (foe). The project involves both algorithm development and robot implementation. The objective is to steer the friend robots in a cooperative way and defeat the foe robot. Instead of putting vision or intelligence in the friend robots, they are just controlled by a computer with a camera over the ring. The reasons why this topic is chosen as a master’s thesis are the increasing number of studies and related technologies in “mobile robots” all over the world but on the other hand only a few in our country. Also this is a topic that uses machine vision, which combines robotic applications with computer vision. The objectives of the project are to track multiple robots in real-time using a video camera, detecting each of mobile robots, deciding movements, and wireless communications for movement commands. The video camera is positioned above the ring. The video feed from the camera is analyzed in real time and the robot positions are determined by our software. The v software is written in C++ using OpenCV, which is an open source library developed by Intel. The wireless communications is implemented with RF signals at 433 MHz. The robots are small LEGO Mindstorms vehicles that are moving inside a ring. Friend robots consist of only DC motors, motor driver chips, RF receiver, and a PIC microcontroller |
