Introduction and Objective Robotic Arm

This document provides an introduction to a student experiment involving a robotic system. It explains that the student was shown the basic layout and components of a robotic arm, including the arm, links, and joints. The student then practiced basic movements of the robotic arm, which were demonstrated by a lab assistant. The movements depended on the type of joints, which included revolute joints for rotation and prismatic joints for linear movement. The objective of the experiment was to develop a computer program to simulate the robotic arm's operations, understand how to control the arm robot, and study the benefits of robotic arms compared to human capabilities in automotive industries.

Introduction

In this experiment, the student was explained by the technician on robotic system.
The robot part introduced to the student with basic layout of the robotic where consist robot
arm, robot arm link and robot arm joint. We practice the robot with basic movement that have
been shown by the lab assistant and recorded all the data of the robot arm movement. The basic
movement of the robot arm depend on the joint types where our robot has revolute joints for
rotary joint and prismatic joint for the linear movement of the robot arm.

Robotics is an interdisciplinary branch of engineering and science that includes


mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, computer science, and others. Robotics deals
with the design, construction, operation, and use of robots, as well as computer systems for
their control, sensory feedback, and information processing. Robotic system has been widely
used in manufacturing, military and surgery since the robot can perform much advantages and
used as the countermeasure for some job that cannot be conduct by the human excellently.
These robotic arms have been used to perform a variety of tasks such as inspection of the Space
Shuttle using a specially deployed boom with cameras and sensors attached at the end effector,
and also satellite deployment and retrieval manoeuvres from the cargo bay of the Space Shuttle.

In this practice, two work station involve to complete the practice which are work
station 1 is the initial position of load and work station 2 is the target moved position for the
load and the arm robot.
Objective

i. To develop a computer ATS programme and stimulate the running operation of


the above case study.
ii. To understand and study how to control and setting the arm robot and real arm
robot functions in the automotive industries.
iii. To study the benefit of arm robot related to human capabilities in automotive
industries.
