Remote control of tilt and pan camera using microcontroller and fpga

Remote control of tilt and pan camera using microcontroller and fpga / Tiew Weng Khai
Pada masa kini, pergerakan menegak dan mendatar kamera semakin digunakan dalam aplikasi robotik dan penglihatan mesin. Bagi projek ini, pergerakan menegak dan mendatar kamera dibina berdasarkan dua motor servo. Satu motor servo digunakan untuk pergerakan menegak manakala motor servo yang satu lagi digunakan untuk pergerakan mendatar. Peranti pedal permainan dan komputer telah digunakan untuk mengawal pergerakan menegak dan mendatar. Bagi projek ini, dua mikropengawal telah digunakan. Satu mikropengawal digunakan untuk menerima isyarat daripada peranti pedal permainan dan komputer. Selepas itu, isyarat akan dihantar ke mikropengawal lain di lokasi kamera. Mikropengawal di lokasi kamera disambung kepada duo motor servo untuk melaksanakan pergerakan menegak dan mendatar. Dua mikropengawal berkomunikasi dengan menggunakan sepasang RF penerima dan penghantar tanpa wayar. Kamera yang digunakan dalam projek ini adalah kamera tanpa wayar bersama dengan penerimanya. Kamera tanpa wayar dipasangkan di atas motor servo manakala penerima disambungkan kepada Altera DE2-70. Altera DE2-70 digunakan untuk memperoleh imej dan memaparkan imej melalui VGA ke monitor. NiosII pemproses dari Altera DE2-70 digunakan untuk menangkap imej dan meningkatkan kontras imej. Akhirnya, imej disimpan sebagai fail bitmap di dalam komputer. Kesimpulannya, sistem pergerakan menegak dan mendatar kamera berjaya dibina dan boleh digunakan dalam aplikasi robotic dan penglihatan mesin. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________ Nowadays, tilt and pan cameras have been increasingly implemented in robotic and machine vision applications. In this project, a tilt and pan system was developed based on two servo motors. One of the servo motors is used to perform the tilt motion while the other servo motor is used for the pan motion. The thumb joystick and computer is used to control the motion of the tilt and pan. In this project, there are two microcontrollers to be used. One of the microcontrollers is responsible to receive the signals from the joystick and computer. After that, the signals are transmitted to another microcontroller located at camera location. The microcontroller located at the camera location is connected with two servo motors to perform tilt and pan motion. The communications between the microcontrollers is implemented through a pair of wireless RF transmitter and receiver. The camera used in this project is a wireless camera comes along with the receiver. The wireless camera is mounted on the servo motor while the receiver is connected to the Altera DE2-70 board. The Altera DE2-70 board is used to acquire and display the images on monitor through VGA interface. The NiosII processor from Altera DE2-70 board is used to capture the images and enhance the contrast of the images. At the end, the image is saved as a bitmap file in the computer. In conclusion, the tilt and pan system was successfully developed and can be applied in robotic or machine vision application.
