   HI there
   Ive got a cam linked to the pc i am using it with the lego linkled
   to the pc with wires. and can guide it by looking at the screen .
   now i want to give it image recogination
    
   does any one know how to recoginise images?? or just edges?? for
   starting?
   actually right now what i do is i can make it go around and i guide
   it with nqc 's joystick control, in an small window in the computer
   is the live image of what the lego sees.
    
   the problem here is that i control the enviroment for the robot.
   and i want to make it be autonomus and let it recoginise its own
   enviroment.
    
   so how to link it to the computer so that it can recoginise colors,
   or edges etc???
    
   then if this is possiable
   then
   you can let it recognice objects, colors, images , and will help in
   navigation.

You can experiment yourself, as I have done, with single frame captures.
I captured an image to a .bmp file and read it with a bit of VB code.
You can decode changes between two frames by XOR'ing each pixel and then
plot the result.

Edge detection begins by finding contrast changes. Work through a .BMP
capture file and for each pixel, check the difference in level for all
8 neighbouring pixels. If there's a difference, there's an edge.

some really simple code will show images changes and edges.

Doing it at high speed in realtime is more of a challenge though -
especially if you want to code it yourself.
