Abstract

Self-balancing robot based on machine vision with two wheels sometimes can be more flexible and saving space than four wheels. We present design scheme and experiment implement of self-balancing robot based on machine vision in the paper. The robot can get road information by CCD camera, then process the image by algorithm to get the road path information and the robot can safely and reliably auto-drive along the road. Based on machine vision the self-balancing robot does not need person to control it, and it can reduce the human disturbance which can greatly improve the efficiency and safety of the system. The system needs to deal with lots of tasks under CPU resource limitation. We have considered the task scheduling under CPU resource limitation through experiment and theory prove. It is proved that the system has good intelligence and anti-interference ability by experiments and competition.
