Abstract :
This article presents the implementation of image processing algorithms over a friendly ARM embedded system, said algorithms allow a mobile robot to displace in an autonomous way within an area, where both static and dynamic obstacles are present. Given that the robot has a vision system, this is capable of increase or decreases its speed when it faces a mobile obstacle or simply changes its movement direction when facing a static obstacle.
