Abstract

This paper presents an image processing method to recognize object's position from images for robot control applications. The Sobel Mask and the Dialated Gradient Mask algorithms are used to extract and refine the edge of the object. The inside of the extracted edge is filled with '1's for calculation of the center of mass to identify object's position. We propose a heuristic method which averages the positions of the objects in 10 frames to reject noises, and discuss the application of the proposed method to robot control.
