The objective of this project is to design and build the mechanical structure and design and implement a control system for a camera mounting to be used in optical tracking applications. The platform must have a standard camera mounting connector for mounting of a video camera. It must be possible to steer the system by means of a joystick controller and it must have the ability to store at least 8 separate viewing positions. The system must have the ability to autonomously rotate between stored pointing positions. In addition to this, the system must be usable as a platform for a closed-loop optical tracking application. The closed-loop control system must be implemented by means of a microprocessor.
As a growth option the optical tracking algorithms from former project investigation students are to be implented and tested in real-time.
This project will run as a 4th year Electronic Engineering project during 2008.
