Abstract

This article presents an algorithm for recognizing text commands and how to send information about a text command to a mobile robot Starter Kit 2.0. The first chapters deal with methods of reading image from Kinect sensors, colour palette changes, thresholds, and central moments calculations. The methods for finding closed contours in the analysed image are presented. Then it shows how to divide the text into rows. Each line was also divided into singular letters that were sent to the defined function. Letter recognition was accomplished by creating a new black image and by embedding the characteristic points. Then the image containing the letter was compared to the standard image using the AND operation. The results were compared with the library created with the description of the point’s characteristic for each letter. All image processing was done in Python with the Raspbian Jessie. Python has also added libfreenect and OpenCV libraries. The last chapter shows how to communicate between Raspberry Pi3 and the mobile robot Starter Kit 2.0.
