Abstract :
This paper describes a monocular vision system for humanoid robots designed and built to compete in the RoboCup Humanoid KidSize League. The proposed vision system allows the robots to track a ball, identify goals, field lines, team mates and opponents, providing information such as distances and estimated location for the robots simultaneously, using threads. With experiments using the real robots it was possible to run the vision system in real time with Full HD camera resolution, thus achieving the main goal of this work.
