Design and Development of Prototype of Robo-AGV for Pick and Place Operation

The line follower robot is generally a robot which follows a particular path that may be predefined using a black or a white surface. This kind of robot senses the track or path using IR sensor that are usually installed under the robot for ease of sensing. After sensing the data is transmitted to the microcontroller through different buses which decides the proper commands and decides the path that will be followed. A robot arm basically uses the servo motors for pick and place operation for small level tasks. Robot arm are designed in such that it moves freely in its degree of freedom and perform a operation. The particular Robot and AGV can be controlled with the app by the user. The esp32cam module is used for the object detection. There are various software’s used for designing apps but an open source freely available and user-friendly software we used is MIT app inventor.ROBO-AGV is the particular robot we have developed as our final year project. But we encountered with various technical and mechanical issues. In this paper we have illustrated the whole process of design, implementation and testing. The technical and mechanical issues are also investigated.
