VISION BASED REAL-TIME OBJECT TRACKING SYSTEM FOR ROBOTIC GIMBAL CONTROL

摘要

Using various embodiments, methods, systems, and apparatuses for controlling a camera pivoting device (e.g., mechanical gimbal) are described. In one embodiment, the system comprises a main computing device, a gimbal stabilizer controller, and a computer vision camera, and/or a user camera. The system is able to track a target object using the computer vision camera even while the target object is moving, the base of the pivoting device is moving (e.g., when a user controlling the camera moves), or a combination of thereof. The camera pivoting device of the embodiments disclosed herein can be mounted on to any number of devices/objects that can provide mobility and/or transportation.
