Abstract
In research for robotics, one usually needs a high-speed, low-cost, and easy-to-use visual sensor which can be used to control a robot in real time. The authors have developed an “outline image processor” which is controlled by an 8 bit microprocessor Z80 and is able to take the coordinates (x, y) of the outline of objects into the memory. Moreover, the processor is able to compute the characteristic sizes and direction of the objects and transmit them to the host computer
