Vision Guided Soccer Robot

Humans carry out daily activities through synchronization of different body parts. Similarly, synchronization of sub-behaviors would allow the humanoid robot to play soccer as a player. A series of sub-behaviors are proposed and created which are then divided into two categories called Red Ball Detection and Goal Post Detection which utilizes the color blob statistics, trigonometric depth analysis, and motion analysis. Motion includes Rotate and Kick Motion which utilizes the motion analysis. A series of investigation would also be done on the trigonometric depth analysis and motion analysis to further enhance the sub-behavior that would be utilizing them. The quantitative results from analysis helps to execute the behavior efficiently. Nao humanoid robot have been used for the experimental studies.
