Abstract：With the development of automation and artificial intelligence technology,automatic tracking of moving targets has become a focus in many industries.In view of problems of high cost and complex operation of traditional tracking systems,a moving target control and automatic tracking system based on MSP430F5529 microcontroller,OpenMV camera and quad-axis electric gim-bal is designed.The OpenMV camera is used for image recognition,using the rectangle detection algorithm to identify the black frame on the white screen and A4 target paper,and combining geometric formulas to calculate the coordinate values of the screen edge,center point and A4 target paper.The blob detection algorithm is used to identify the current position coordinates of the red and green light spots.The microcontroller combines the coordinates of the light spots and coordinates of the moving target,uses the digital PID algorithm to calculate the control quantity,and independently controls the two-dimensional electric gimbal of the red and green spots to achieve the movement and tracking of the target point,thereby realizing the functions of light spot reset,move-ment along the screen edge,following the black tape outside A4 target paper,and automatic tracking of the green light spot on the red light spot.Through testing,the system shows good stability,rapid response and accuracy and meets the design task require-ments.
