Integration of Image Processing Algorithm and Path Planning for Search and Rescue Robot

The focus of this project was to explore algorithms and techniques used in motion detection, object recognition and facial recognition, path finding as well as obstacle avoidance. To apply these algorithms, OpenCV was used. In terms of hardware, Raspberry Pi were used to perform image processing...
