Desenvolvimento de uma plataforma robótica de defesa com inteligência artificial para rastreamento de alvos

Abstract

More often defense and security areas have been utilizing the most advanced technologies available to accomplish faster and efficiently the mission which it has been assigned, lowering the risks to human operators. The present work has shown the process of development and implementation of artificial intelligence technologies and computer vision applied to autonomous target detection, control and tracking of a sentry gun, and also the development of its robotic structure. In this work the software technologies, the electronic and the mechanical structure are demonstrated. Finally, a functional prototype of a sentry gun was assembled, and it is capable of being controlled using a joystick and it is also equipped with autonomous target detection and tracking.
