The aim of this project was to autonomously catch a ball falling down from an inclined plane having obstacles. For detailed
description of the project, please click on the above heading. The concepts used were : Tracking the position of ball and
finding obstacles using Image processing , doing a linear curve fitting for approximate motion of ball using Linear regression,
sending data to bot for autonomous movement using subscribers and publishers in ROS(Robot operating system). This project stood first in the competition at Techniche 2016 , the Annual Technical fest of IIT Guwahati. The complete code has been open-sourced and can be accessed at https://github.com/KunalDhawan/Phototron. The detailed problem statement can be viewed from below .
