Task 2.1:Problem definition

Design a pick and place gesture controlled robotic arm which should pick and dispense objects.The bot should be agile(fast and quick responsive),stable(not topple) and should be able to work continuously for 3 hours. The robot should be operable on flat surfaces and cost should not exceed Rs.5000.Construction and testing should be completed with in 3 months.The bot should hold the objects firmly and can lift the object with the dimensions of the range (3 * 3 * 3)cm3 to (5 * 5 * 5)cm3.It can move in different directions as indicated by gestures. It should be able to pick and place 1 object/min.

Task 2.2:List the inputs,outputs of the system and represent black box model.

Inputs outputs
1)Electricity 1)Movement and vibration of parts
2)Gesture 2)Pick and Place

Task 2.3 List the functions of system.

Functions :

  1. The Bot pick and place the 1 object/min.
  2. The Bot should move in different directions.
  3. The Bot should be in sync with the user by responding to his actions.
