A U-shape bed localization method on embedded vision system

摘要

In order to dock an embedded intelligent wheelchair into a U-shape bed automatically through visual servo, this paper proposes a real-time U-shape bed localization method on an embedded vision system based on FPGA and DSP. This method locates the U-shape bed through finding its line contours. The task can be done in a parallel way with FPGA does line extraction and DSP does line contour finding. Experiments show that, the speed and precision of the U-shape bed localization method proposed in this paper which based on an embedded vision system can satisfy the needs of the system.
