Analysis and Improvement in Color-Based Target Recognition Algorithm of Robot

In the Martial Arts arena contest of robot, Humanoid robot should recognize the target timely and accurately. So robot vision technology becomes a key of the contest. In this paper, target recognition algorithms based on color information are analyzed. According to the results, an improved algorithm based on Table Lookup method is proposed, which aimed to provide more rapidity of computing in real-time control system on the robot. It is shown in illustrative experiment that average 50% time was saved in computing when using the new algorithm instead of traditional algorithms.
