Abstract:
This article was created as part of a Problem Based Learning (PBL) project in which we investigated delta robots, CNC machines and embedded systems. In response to the imperatives of Industry 4.0, this research introduces "DeltaSort", a delta robot system poised to revolutionize agricultural sorting processes. Through the integration of advanced gripping mechanisms and artificial intelligence-driven object recognition, DeltaSort meticulously assesses and categorizes harvested fruits and vegetables, ensuring judicious force application for gentle handling and precise sorting. Beyond the confines of agriculture, the system presents a plethora of advantages, encompassing heightened productivity, superior precision, elevated safety standards, increased production speeds, and non-stop operational capability, rendering it an instrumental solution in contemporary automated processes.
