NXT Scanner with Lego Mindstorms NXT

NXT Scanner Model-Based Design based on Embedded Coder Robot NXT.

Description

The NXT Scanner is an image scanner that can scan images using a light sensor and scanned data are transferred to a PC via USB. MATLAB is used for image processing (contrast adjustment, image interpolation and image deconvolution) in the PC. The NXT Scanner is developed using MATLAB/Simulink and Stateflow.

You can see the NXT Scanner demo movie at youtube.
