Abstract

Aiming at the golf tournament technical requirements in International Humanoid robot Olympic Game (IHOG), two-freedom-degrees “head & eye” system based on monocular vision robot MF-AI is developed. The new robot equipped with the “head & eye” system can identify the location of the golf ball and the hole, and can measure the distance of the two objects. Experiments show that the two-freedom-degrees “head & eye” system improves the accuracy of hitting the golf ball into the hole. Moreover, the system can identify the target, can calibrate distances, can measure robot’s moving and look for the hole, can adjust the position of the robot and hit the ball effectively.
