Robotics project.
The goal of the EPFL (Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne) Robotics Competition is to build an autonomous recycling robot. This robot, built from scratch, must recognizes any bottle (thanks to a camera), catch it, then bring it to a recycling area.

Python and C++ projects.
To realize my bottle recycling robot project, I had to find a way to recognize bottles. This article will show how I installed a camera on the robot and the solutions I found to do visual recognition using: ImageAI lib, OpenCV and a Haar Cascade. Finally, how to convert the position of the bottles in pixels of the image into a real 3D position to guide the robot towards its goals.
