Todo

  • run 1/21 images through image library to determine best algorithm to use (hull vs edge)
  • use color or grayscale camera image (will depend on algorithm used)
  • determine how fast NI image library is (if using edge detect, might want to right that part ourselves)
  • test green and white led ring when they come in
  • ...

Notebook

1/15: tested white and red led reflections

  • Target: 26 feet from camera; OSB; tape is black duct tape (note: not enough tape to do inside completely)
  • Light Sources: 1) Round light with several red leds (something from a prior year); 2) Mini-led flashlight (red from toolbox), has 5 wihtie leds
  • Results: The red led gave off a little red cast (each time we connected power, a different number of leds lit up). The white leds reflected the best. Concerned the white leds might be too bright for drivers on other alliance
  • Images: 1) No light source; 2) Red led light; 3) Mini flashlight


1/19: tested Infrared lights reflecting off reflective tape for the camera

  • Target: about 4 feet from camera (we did not measure it); poly; outer tape is black duct tape and inner tape is blue gaffers tape; in the middle of the target, the plastic protection is on the back; area outside the black tape has the plastic protection on both sides
  • Light Sources: 1) infared LED Night light, Model # IR045; 2) Mini-led flashlight (red from toolbox), has 5 wihtie leds
  • Results: Camera can infrared light, but no reflection on tape (you can also see reflect on the plastic).
  • Images: 1) No light source; 2) Infared light; 3) Mini flashlight


1/21: ran edge detection on images from 1/15 and 1/19

1/21: Took lots of pictures of the target:

  • From various distances/locations:
    • up against Fender
    • sideways at Fender
    • top of Key
    • corner of Key 
    • at center Bridge
    • at alliance Bridge
  • At all three hoop heights
    • Taking into account sideways displacement of middle hoops
  • Some with light shining on the retro-reflective tape, some without
  • Some with mock "hoop", some without
  • Some with balls blocking parts of target, some without
  • Target always approximately in the center of the picture
    • This assumes variable-angle camera

1/22: Image processing
