This project is an attempt at the implementation of a robot for securing victims in dangerous environment. It is made in Webots using the Erebus environmnet. This robot is equiped with the following:
- 9 laser sensors for mapping
- main camera for victim detection
- secondary camera for floor obstacle detection
- two wheels for movements
- gps for geolocation
- compass for auto calibration and navigation
- 1000x1000 screen for map visualization
The project relies on multiple libraries necessary for execution:
- OpenCV cv2
- Matplotlib's pyplot
- EasyOCR
- Numpy
The project is entirely made in python and dependencies can be installed trough pip:
pip install dependency
Once the dependencies are downloaded, it is necessary to launch the the world /game/worlds/world1.wbt file through Webots and wait a few minutes as the detection model needs initialization alongside the Erebus framework.
Click on run to execute the code.
Easyocr is heavy computation wise so it is preferable to use a pc equipped with NVIDIA CUDA to process the images. The full implementation of our code can be found in /game/controllers/RRR
