Camera-only robots regain line tracking with novel two-stage recovery system · 2 sources tracked

By PulseAugur Editorial · [2 sources] ·

Researchers have developed a novel two-stage recovery system for camera-only autonomous ground vehicles that can re-establish line tracking when visual guidance is lost. The system first attempts to re-acquire the line by turning in place and relaxing color detection parameters. If this fails, it utilizes monocular visual odometry to backtrack to previously saved positions before re-attempting line tracking. This approach, evaluated in Webots simulations, achieved an 86.6% success rate with a median recovery time of 3.26 seconds, demonstrating its feasibility for low-cost, computationally constrained robots.
