Fast Object Tracking using Jetson-Tricore Hybrid Integration with Look-Ahead Movement Estimator

Real-time object detection technology has been extensively researched across various industries due to its high accuracy and efficiency. However, developing a robust system for real-time object detection and motor control to track detected objects presents challenges. Specifically, the communication delay between the host and motor driver, combined with the motor’s response time, makes it difficult to achieve fast and accurate real-time operation. We implemented a system utilizing a look-ahead movement estimation algorithm to enable fast and accurate target tracking. Our algorithm predicts the object’s position and control the motor to target the next position in advance, ensuring timely and accurate motor control. This early control mechanism enhances the system’s ability to maintain accurate tracking and targeting of moving objects in real-time application.
