RoboCup Soccer Simulation Begins! The TFA Junior Robotics Team is excited to announce our latest competition. We will be competing in RoboCup Soccer Simulation Demonstration Competition 2021. This competition will be held on Webots, just like the RoboCup Rescue...

Contour tracing algorithm through C programming language

Contour Tracing Algorithm through C and BMP files

Contour Tracing Algorithm using C Image Processing During RoboCup Rescue Line and Maze, our team had done Computer Vision contour tracing using OpenCV's findContours function. In the past month, Victor has focused on writing image processing code in C to make contour...

Rescue Line Image Processing

Basic BMP Image Processing

Basic BMP Image Processing This past month, Victor has worked on basic image processing techniques using the C programming language. This is because our team wanted to see if we could potentially implement image processing ideas into an embedded system without needing...
