Robotic Platform uses OpenCV to detect objects using a variety of techniques such as HSV thresholding, contours, and hough lines
At this stage it detect minor things as objects such as leaves and bright spots of light. Robotic platform was actually configured indoors, so the software was not configured for various outdoor objects.
