General purpose Industrial Robot

Abstract: In today's world various automation techniques are being adopted for increase in productivity, for better accuracy, eliminating the human errors. Machine Vision is one such advancement in automatic systems. Machine vision performs the tasks that are similar to human vision. It helps to detect the object of color and sort that object. This paper present color sorting solution with application of image processing. Image processing procedure senses the object in a capture form and then extract its colour and its position information out of it. This information sends as a sequence of sorting command to the controller that does sorting mechanism. After recognizing the color of the object, robotic arm will automatically pick & place it accordingly. If the colour of the work piece is not found in accordance to the required one, then it will be rejected.
