The variation in horizontal and vertical axis of tracked object generate control signal which is send to the controller wirelessly. The captured images of the object are processed using software MATLAB. Depending on the change in position of object, proper commands are given to the robot to track moving ball. This project is in aimed to design and develop a mobile robot which can track a moving ball. Here, we use the camera to capture image of the ball and these frames are processed to track the ball. The features of the ball such as the colour, shape, size can be monitored for tracking the ball. In our project we use the colour information of the ball to track the object. Better performance of the robot can be obtained if multiple features are monitored. The motion of the robot is controlled by a microcontroller based on the control signals received directly.
