Multi Directional Conductive Metal Detection Robot Control

Abstract

As technology is growing there is a considerable demand on machine interface to the controlling system. Robotics is an era where mechanical structures are powered by interfacing personal computers with the improved software tools. Hyperlink is a standalone program to interact with the devices remotely interfaced with the personal computers. Wireless communication is also a supporting mechanism to regulate the direction and movement of the robotic machines. This paper aims to direct the conductive metal finding robot in all eight directions. An IR sensor assembly is used to position the robot to move with defined angle. Concentric coil type metal detector is used to pinpoint the targeted metal. Offset Quadrature phase shift keyed modulation stream (OQPSK) with 2.4 G Hz is used for transmitting the information to the remote control section of the robot. The mechanical load calculations are estimated to design the robot. The developed model is best suited on uneven surfaces.
