Product Collecting Robot

Abstract

Product collecting robot is a machine that can detect an object and able to carry the object to destination by following a line. The path can be black line on white surface. This machine can detect any object with a range of distance and it has capability to grip that and also it is able to carry this object to destination. Generally, the path is predefined by a black line on a white surface with a high contrasted color. Therefore, this kind of Robot should sense the line with its Infrared Ray (IR) transceiver sensors that installed under the robot. In this project we developed the robot to detect the object by using HC-SR04 ultrasonic ranging sensor. This economical sensor provides 2cm to 400cm of non-contact measurement functionality with a ranging accuracy. To grip the object we use we use SG91R micro servomotor, which is tinny. The program for the system has been developed using Arduino programming language. All the components are interfaced with the Atmega 2560 microcontroller, which is the heart of all control. And the whole system has mainly seven units. These are 11.2 V power supply, 5V power supply, At mega microcontroller, Motor driver, IR transceiver, DC Motor and Sonar with servo motor.
