Chasing a Tennis Ball with ROS

Offered By: Articulated Robotics via YouTube

Course Description

Overview

Learn how to use ROS and OpenCV to detect and track a tennis ball with a robot in this comprehensive video tutorial. Explore camera integration, ball detection algorithms, 3D position estimation, and robot control for object following. Set up a simulation environment, implement ball tracking code, create launch files, and configure the system on a real robot. Follow along with practical demonstrations and testing to build a functional ball-chasing robot using the Robot Operating System (ROS) framework.
