Research Experience of an Undergraduate Student in Computer Vision and Robotics

Abstract

This paper focuses on the educational journey of a computer engineering undergraduate student venturing into the domain of computer vision and robotics. It explores how optical flow and its applications can be used to detect moving objects when a camera undergoes translational motion, highlighting the challenges encountered and the strategies used to overcome them. Furthermore, the paper discusses not only the technical skills acquired by the student but also interpersonal skills as related to teamwork and diversity. In this paper, we detail the learning process, including the acquisition of technical and problem-solving skills, as well as out-of-the-box thinking.
