碩士 === 國立臺灣海洋大學 === 電機工程學系 === 97 === The main objective of this thesis is to design an intelligent assistant robot with autonomous visual tracking capability. The robot arms can also be controlled by a set of Wii Remote. The major skeleton of the robot is the i90 moving platform by DrRobot Company. In order to increase the robot's capability, two arms are equipped on the main body. Further, the robot can be separated from its central controller and uses WiFi wireless devices to receive and transmit the sensing and control information. In the case of autonomous tracking, given a target object, we use Borland C++ Builder software and OpenCV to process the image which is captured by an IP camera. Then control decision and command are sent by Visual C++ to the robot. In combination with the Wii Remote, the computer receives the Wii remote motion sensor's data via the Bluetooth interface and sends them to control robot.
