Because there’s likely to be some significant vision targets this year, I’d like to (officially) release 2521’s base vision software.
Some unique features of our vision code include:
- Communication status GUI, displayed on a 5" screen on the robot
- We’ve had some difficulty in the past getting our coproccessors reliably connected, so this is an effort to ensure reliable connection and easily fix any issues.
- Fairly clean codebase (though some work still needs to be done to clean it up further)
- Easy installation on ubuntu/raspbian devices (just run the
./install_support.sh
script!) - Fast OpenCV procession and (WIP) target distance calculations
We’ll release some more game-specific vision code sometime during the season as it becomes more developed. Also, here are a few examples of our communication GUI (can also be found on our repo)
As always, feedback and suggestions are greatly appreciated!
