Re: Help with image processing

Well you asked about a servo, and if you have never done this before, that is a pretty easy way to experiment.

If you later want to rotate the robot, you now need to work on getting the robot to pivot and stop at a particular direction. This is quite a bit harder than a servo or lazy-susan turret, but using a PID or other control algorithm and a gyro will be a good place to start.

The default 2010 code contained simple code that used an image to locate the circular target, and a gyro and PID to turn the robot to point at the target.
