Abstract

The traditional painting method requires labours to work in hazardous environments. Since the evolution of robots, there had been many advances made in the industries to aid the labours working in it. Previously many approaches were developed to solve the difficulties faced during the painting process but those robots were not intelligent since they used sensors and actuators. They are usually designed for doing the repetitive tasks that at times requires human intelligence too. Therefore, our aim is to design and develop a painting robotic arm based on artificial intelligence to overcome the drawbacks in the earlier robots. This robot is capable of detecting the tinted areas in the wall and to paint them automatically. It is made intelligent by using AI algorithms such as SciPy and NumPy with which the image of the wall to be painted is captured, thresholded and segmented in order to calculate the dimensions and axes of the same. This is made possible by using object-recognition and image segmentation process.
