ROBOT BALL DETECTOR WITH STATIC BACKGROUND USING ARDUINO-BASED PIXY CMU CAM 5 CAMERA

Abstract

Robot technology has been widely utilized by various circles to facilitate human activities
such as mobile robot. The development of robot technology is also followed by the
development of the sensor used one of them is the camera. In this study, mobile robots are
made in order to distinguish the color of objects using camera Pixy CMU Cam 5. The
camera on mobile robot aims to input the image to be processed by Arduino Uno R3 so
that the mobile robot can follow the movement of the ball according to the colors that
have been captured by the previous camera. Mobile robot that have been researched can
run well in the process of tracking objects and robot can move well if lux is worth 120 at
the time of taking the color of theball or with proper lighting arrangement, the ball color
sampling process by the PixyMon application. A good ball color is used when
performing against the ball that is yellow, pink and orange in a green and white-walled
arena.
