2021-02-23 Taxi Status Update

  • Current Status:

    • Complete: Model trained and working

    • Blocking: Cannot get video input

  • Next steps:

    1. Download model

    2. Make a file on your local machine

    3. Create test code → Load model in tensorflow, test with box to confirm detection.

    4. Test model with openCV video input → For testing, use webcam input.

    5. Planning implementation of how to accomplish following tasks (Taxi):

      1. Approaching a box: How do you plan to approach the box, measure distance, and not hit?

      2. Scanning QR Code and identifying correct or incorrect box → Straightforward with a Python library

      3. If box is incorrect → How to move to next box

      4. If box is correct → Firmware team takes over and picks up the box.

    6. Integrating into targetAcquisition (Shrinjay)
