CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
1.1 INTRODUCTION
Fully Automatic Sorting Machine ASM using USB Camera Vision is a
project that intends to help human work effectively. ASM sorts out items according to category continuously without the assistance or monitoring of human. USB camera
is the main component in this whole project. The function of this camera is to capture images of objects delivered by loader and send them to PC via USB cable. LabVIEW
is then used to analyze those images. A proper algorithm was designed to perform the operation analysis and generate output control signals to the respective hardware.
Finally, a rotary container was installed to collect items delivered by the conveyor. This project intends to convey the general idea of vision systems.
The contribution of the idea of vision systems can be widely accepted and can easily fit into any industry. This concept can be implemented in machine upgrading
or to improvise a current process. Besides that, the concept can also be used to design a system that helps the disabled, mainly those with vision problems. The whole idea
is to make the world more cheerful with the science and technology we have now.
