Robotics Project

Guided Intruder Detection and Interception

GIDI is a LEGO robotics project that combines onboard sensors with YOLOv8 and OpenCV to detect, track, and target a selected individual. Once the system locks on, the robot advances and fires red toy balls from its mounted toy blaster to demonstrate guided interception behavior.
