TARGET RECOGNITION WITH COLOR COMPONENTS AND SOBEL OPERATOR

Abstract

The present study aims to develop a target recognizing software by comparing the image obtained through the camera and the images in the data base using a SOBEL operator and color components which are used to detect the shapes of objects. In the developed target recognition system, the image obtained through the camera and the images in the data base are first compared via SOBEL operator in terms of their shapes, and in case that the images are equal or highly similar to the determined similarity percentage, their color components are compared. If this comparison also provides expected similarity percentages, the target is considered to be recognized, thus enabling the control of both the shape and the color of the target. C# programming language is used in the developed software
