This project will explore applications of vision based tracking for controlling 
      robotic systems. A computer vision algorithm will be implemented, which enables 
      a computer to visually track the movements of a variety of objects (people, 
      vehicles, other robots etc) in real-time using a camera which may itself be 
      moving. The camera will then be mounted on a robotic system developed by the 
      mechanical engineering students based on US military specifications. Visual 
      tracking will then be used to control the robot's motors (visual servoing). 
      This visual feedback will enable the camera to be continually repositioned 
      so as to keep the tracked object within the field of view.
