AI on the Jetson Nano - Tracking an Object with Servos in OpenCV

Paul McWhorter via YouTube

Overview

Learn how to track objects using OpenCV on the Jetson Nano with a camera mounted on a servo-controlled pan-tilt system. Explore hardware setup, including camera options and servo components. Implement object recognition and camera movement to keep the target centered. Follow along with code setup in Visual Studio, importing libraries, and running the program. Troubleshoot common issues, fine-tune tracking parameters, and optimize the control system for improved stability and reduced jitter.
