In industries, manufacturing units’ etc, in which
there is no continuity between the conveyor belts our prototype our robot can
be used to make the necessary transfer of goods form one place to another using
computer as a remote termainal. For a set of conveyor belts we use only one set
of azimuth and elevation co-ordinates. If the goods are placed on the conveyor
belt at regular intervals judged by the time required for the arm to make the
placement on the second conveyor regular transfer can be achieved. Again the
operation is quite simple. We provide the two co-ordinates of the conveyor belt
from which the goods have to be transferred. At this time the arm picks up the
material from the first conveyor and places it in the second conveyor belt onto
which the material has to be placed. This enables the arm to make the
placement. Thus continuous transfer of goods between two distant conveyors are
achieved.

PIC Microcontroller Board
This
is the board which contains PIC Microcontroller Chip as well as the clock
Circuitary, Reset Circuit and Power Supply for the MicroController.
OptoCoupler With Stepper Driver Board.
The
need of Optocoupler is to isolate the
Microcontroller Board form the Stepper Motor to restrict any high voltage to
the Microcontroller board. And this
board also contains stepper Driver circuit to amplify the Voltge and to
withstand high current because the pulse coming out from the Microcontroller is
not tough enough to drive the Motor.
Stepper Power Supply.
This
board contains the power Supply for the stepper motor and relay driver.
Mechanical Model
The mechanical model is built in such a way that the
robotic arm holds and an object picks it up and places it in another place.
Artificial Inelligence
Our
robot has some human brain such that it stops whenever it finds an object in
front of it, gives an alarm.
