Object Sorting by Arduino Robot

Abstract

Automation of work has become an important part of industrial manufacturing process in the recent years. Tasks that usually take large amount of labor and time can now be easily completed by using robots which can be programmed to do the said task. Tasks such as assembly and object sorting which require tasks to be repeated can be carried out by robots. The system proposed here can be used for sorting objects in the industrial manufacturing process. The system focuses on sorting objects based on their size or color or both. The system is designed using IR sensors, a TCS3200 color sensor and Arduino UNO board for controlling the different parts. The proposed system gives better accuracy and performance as compared to the methods currently used.
