Abstract
This chapter introduces a digital image processing algorithm to detect the obstacle in the path and according to the position of the obstacle, the speed of Autonomous Robotic Vehicle is controlled through PID based Speed control module. The camera mounted on Autonomous Robotic Vehicle captures image in such a way that the obstacle in image and actual vehicle position keep some distance to avoid collision. Based on the computed obstacle size, the vehicle actions are controlled. The streaming of the images of the path is done and each image is analysed through MATLAB Simulink based Video Processing Module. The control actions are taken based on the PID constants computed through MATLAB Simulink modules.
