The ArduEye prototype (left) and the finished sensor (right) In a previous post, I demonstrated that the ArduEye platform could be used to prototype a 6DOF vision system for optical flow odometry. The goal is to make a vision system for the…
"@Monroe, it would be pretty easy to use this as a horizon detector, and we've demonstrated a light tracking application that could be used for the sun. More work (and probably more pixels) would be needed to pick out stars, but it is theoretically…"
"@Ellison, We will be offering the ArduEye system in the near future, but price is still TBD.
@Monroe, By providing integrated linear and rotational motion, this system can (theoretically) stabilize an air vehicle using vision alone. We demonstrated…"
As a participant in the Harvard University Robobees Project, our primary task at Centeye is to develop a vision sensor system that will fit into a small flying robot about 2cm in size. The target weight budget for the vision system is 25…
