Multi Color Object Tracking with the Papilio One!
Back in April Papilio user Voelker shared with us his project of Blob Tracking with a $10 Camera Module on the Papilio One. Today we got another similar project made by Papilio user Wicked who is able to track multiple objects of different colors using the Papilio One 500k. Wicked uses a camera that he…
