Abstract:
Methods and devices for demonstrating three-player pursuit-evasion (PE) game are provided using a hardware-in-loop test-bed. Robots including pursuer robots and an evader robot are arranged on a solid surface. A drone is positioned flying above to oversee the robots to capture a video or an image sequence of the robots. A robot thread process and a drone thread process are implemented by a computer. In the robot thread process, a tracking-by-detection process is perform to provide a state of the robot including a location and a heading direction of the robot; a delay compensation is conducted; and a PE game is called to calculate a robot command. In the drone thread process, a drone control is calculated to make the drone follow an evader robot, the drone control is sent to the drone, and user commands are also checked.
Abstract:
In accordance with various embodiments of the disclosed subject matter, a method and a system for detecting multiple objects from real-time images are provided. The method comprises: performing, using a CPU host, an image segmentation process to divide real-time input images into a plurality of image partitions; performing, by multiple GPUs, a fast block-wise registration process, a mark setting process, a background generation process, a foreground generation process based on a Hyper-Q computation infrastructure, and a support vector machine classification process; and generating, by the CPU host, visualization classification images.
