Abstract
This article is devoted to the vision system, which is an integral part of control system for mobile robots soccer team. The paper describes an experimental test bed used for real-time image acquisition, processing, and recognition of objects placed on the 2D surface. Description of specific features of objects being recognized, which are controlled and opponent team robots as well as a ball has been also included. Filtering methods used to improve quality of the image received from camera have been presented. The paper also shows a new heuristic algorithm, invented for objects recognition on the scene, playground in our case. The algorithm has been implemented, experimentally verified and quality of measurement has been estimated.
