Visual Servoing with block diagram, source code and video.
Below is a link to the PDF of the block diagram.
The code to track the color and draw the rectangles is below:

Below is a video showing the current progress of the video tracking. A red rectangle is drawn around the color on the full color video. The mask shows only the color being tracked, in white, while the screen position, y-axis, is outputted to the terminal in the larger window below the video and the mask. Next step is to attach it to a servo and have the RPi communicate with a micro-controller to manipulate the servo in to tracking the color in any direction in the y-axis. (update to be posted soon).
This video shows the final product of the Webcam Tracker.
