Track 1 Path Planning Chase Demo

This project uses a top-down camera view of our robotics play field to track two robots using machine vision tags.

In the demo video, the smaller robot is remote-controlled and acts as the moving target. The larger robot runs a path-planning algorithm and continuously chases the target tag while updating its route.

As part of this project, students will:

• Study the current path-planning approach and how it behaves as the target moves.
• Improve the planning logic for smoother, faster, and more reliable pursuit.
• Compare different path-planning and localization algorithms.
• Use machine vision to detect and localize tags on the field.
• Use AI-based decision-making to choose where each robot should move next.
