Image Processing Setup
OpenCV Image Processing from the WCV80N Camera Remote processing is used since on-board computer is not powerful enough requiring WiFi and Xbee communication
Open Loop / Dead Reckoning is unreliable switch to Closed Loop / Visual Servoing Reduce vehicle speed Prevent time outs / blocking on software Future Changes Lessons Learned Design to work Hardware with Software Plan for more data input Gain synergy from thinking like electrical and mechanical engineer
