Robotic Vision: Making Robots See – Robotics Course – FutureLearn

Create your own robotic vision system as you take part in a vision project and learn how to write the code to make your robot see Learn about the functions you need to program a robotic vision system This three-week course will guide you through the essential skills needed to make a robot see Youll develop your knowledge of image geometry before learning the programming skills used in robotic vision Youll gain an in-depth understanding of robotics and practical skills as youre guided by experts at Queensland University of Technology to complete a robotic vision system Refine your skills using MATLAB Youll cement your understanding of robotic vision by completing MATLAB exercises to see these processes in action Youll learn how to demonstrate basic coding in MATLAB for calibration shape classification and workspace coordination This will help you build the practical skills to use in robotic programming Grow your knowledge of computer vision to create a vision system Youll take part in a robotic vision programming project to hone your skills and learn important functions such as improving colour segmentation detecting shape and size improving your homography matrix rectifying your image and forming a complete vision system Along the way youll be able to reflect on your robotic vision systems as well as your peers projects to understand what makes a successful system As an optional project if you have built or bought a robot youll also learn the information needed for integrating your vision system homogeneous coordinates image formation planar homography colour segmentation blobs and their properties such as size shape and position homography matrices vision system integration optional Apply your knowledge of computer vision to create a vision system Demonstrate basic coding in MATLAB for calibration shape classification and workspace coordination Reflect on the success of your and your peers robotic vision systems
