Abstract:

This study suggested a real-time method based on image processing to control football robots. Photographs are taken by placing cameras on the football field prepared for robots. The images obtained are being detected by robots and balls with the background extraction method. The speed and movement of the ball identified by the image processing methods are calculated. The ball is controlled by calculating the speed and direction of the nearest robot. The recommended method compared to existing studies in literature, its advantages and disadvantages are present. In this study, the most important feature is that robots can be fully controlled according to the image processing outcome without having to communicate with each other. Instead of having a camera on each robot, it reduces the cost of processing with the camera only on the field. In this study, vehicles that can be controlled from a distance instead of football robots were used. The ability of these vehicles to move is limited to football robots. But the cost of the proposed method is quite low compared to the studies in literature. The method was applied through the experimental environment to verify the proposed study. The results of the experiment show that all robots can be controlled by the recommended image processing method.
