Abstract—In many situations, autonomous robots can provide effective solutions to gruelling tasks.In this case, it is desirable to create an autonomous robot that can identify objects from the conveyor belt and relocate them if the object meets certain criteria. Dealing with a large number of objects is a very menial task, this is an excellent application for a robot of this type. In this case, to keep costs and design complexity low, the robot is designed around the platform and uses several different sensors to collect information about the robots environment to allow the robot to react accordingly. This paper aims at the problem I am attempting to solve is to create an autonomous robot that can identify objects when placed on the conveyor belt based on color sensing and then sort by relocating them to a specific location. It will be using a picking arm which uses a controller motor to pick the particular object from the conveyor belt and place it according to the color sensing. Micro controller (AT89S52) allows dynamic and faster control. Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) makes the system user-friendly. AT89S52 Micro controller is the heart of the circuit as it controls all the functions.
