Desenvolvimento de um sistema de detecção e classificação por cores primárias utilizando a biblioteca de visão computacional OpenCV.

Abstract

This work is a final report written at the end of the activities developed during the supervised stage accomplished at the Laboratório de Automação e Processamento de Sinais – LAPS located at UFCG, during the second half of 2011. The work was developed inside the context of separation of PET bottles in their recycling process. The main focus of this study was the development of a basic system of detecting and sorting objects according to the primary colors (red, green and blue). The project main idea was to implement a low cost system, which uses only a computer and a webcam connected to it. Thus, further work may improve the system, building the physical apparatus, for example. The effectiveness of the activities during the stage was reached to consolidate the knowledge of undergraduate course as well as the development of the vision of a market problem and a possible solution to it.
