Abstract

The development of robotic systems has increased significantly in recent years, and one of the areas that has shown great potential is the use of robots for sorting tasks. Sorting robots can significantly increase the efficiency and accuracy of industrial processes, particularly in warehouses and logistics centres. This abstract focuses on the design and implementation of a sorting robot that integrates computer vision, motion control, and IoT technology. The sorting robot is equipped with a camera that captures images of the objects to be sorted. Computer vision algorithms are used to process the images and identify the patterns. The robot's motion control system moves the arm and gripper to pick up the objects and place them in the appropriate location. The integration of IoT enables the robot to not only acquire data from the sorting operation but also facilitates manual control of the robot, fostering seamless communication with sensor and systems within the warehouse. This integration enhances the sorting process, contributing to overall operational efficiency. The system's hardware consists of a Raspberry Pi and a robotic arm with a gripper. The software includes Python for computer vision and motion control, and MQTT for IoT communication. The sorting robot has the potential to significantly improve sorting processes in industrial settings, reducing the need for manual labour and increasing efficiency. With further development and optimization, this technology could have wide-ranging applications across various industries, including manufacturing, logistics, and e-commerce.
