Industrial robotic automation with Raspberry PI using image processing

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to present a system powered by a Raspberry PI and an industrial robotic arm, which can execute numerous task in a factory. The used robotic arm and imaging devices are industrial type, but the control system it's a simple development microprocessor board. The robotic arm it's the SCORBOT-ER III and the imagining devices are IP cameras. The goal it's to demonstrate that even complex industrial systems can be run with modest and small card-size pocket computing devices. Final scope is to prove, that with only one microchip, smart autonomous robotic systems, can be created.
