Shadow Me: Program a Humanoid Robot to Imitate Human Movements

Research areas

Computer Vision

Description

Using a camera and a kinect sensor observe a human. Using computer vision techniques interpret movements. Using a controllable robot, repeat the same movements.

Goals

The goal is developing real-time running software that captures visual data and learns human movement patterns to control a humanoid robot.

Requirements

- Matlab, C++, microcontroller programming - Strong background in computer vision and image/video processing This is a more practical than theoretical project however, you will need to have some analytical and mathematical skills to traverse certain prob
