We investigate the performance of a robotic system that is solely controlled based upon manipulations to a video feed, otherwise known as a computer vision dependent system. We fulfilled a modified version of two 2022 Roboboat objectives while also considering conditions present and resources available. Through applications of robotic design, implementation and creation of computer vision systems, design of computer interfacing systems, and creation of parts through 3D printing, we were able to successfully complete the objectives. Ultimately, this project was instrumental in demonstrating our mastery of mechatronic systems.
