The FollowMeBot follows the user based on the color of his or her shirt. The device hosts a webcam on a servo to find the object and orient the robot. The color is chosen through the user interface with push buttons. Currently, the MATLAB code supports red and green detection. The purpose of FollowMeBot is to be able to follow the user in order to be helpful for daily tasks.
