A MODEL VISION OF SORTING SYSTEM APPLICATION USING ROBOTIC MANIPULATOR
Abstract: Image processing in
today’s world grabs massive attentions as it leads to possibilities of broaden
application in many fields of high technology. The real challenge is how to
improve existing sorting system in the Moduler Processing System (MPS)
laboratirium which consists of four integrated stations of distribution,
testing, processing and handling with a new image processing feature. Existing
sorting method uses a set of inductive, capacitive and optical sensors do
differentiate object color. This paper presents a mechatronics color sorting
system solution with the application of image processing. Supported by OpenCV,
image processing procedure senses the circular objects in an image captured in
realtime by a webcam and then extracts color and position information out of
it. This information is passed as a sequence of sorting commands to the
manipulator (Mitsubishi Movemaster RV-M1) that does pick-and-place mechanism.
Extensive testing proves that this color based object sorting system works 100%
accurate under ideal condition in term of adequate illumination, circular
objects’ shape and color. The circular objects tested for sorting are silver,
red and black. For non-ideal condition, such as unspecified color the accuracy
reduces to 80%.
