Object Sorting Based on Size and Colour Detection Using Arduino

Abstract

Abstract Automation has become the primary requirement for almost all the businesses. The accuracy and speed with which a machine performs a task is higher when compared to that of humans. In most of the industries major activities involve measurement, cutting and sorting. Sorting can be done based on size, shape, color and quality etc. The sorting will be done based on quality in our project. And quality is analyzed based on the object size and color. In the project we developed a system for sorting objects, the gear motors used to rotate the conveyor belt. IR sensor modules is used to detect the product movement on the conveyor belt, color sensor is Used detect color of an object and sends the signal to controller. The IR sensors sense the size of the object and send the high or low values to the controller and as per the size the microcontroller controls the servo motor and shifts the object to its destination. The LCD interfaced with the controller is used to indicate number of color objects.
