This document describes a project to create a low-cost robotic arm that can help farmers clean dust from rice. The robotic arm will use image processing and a gripper to pick rice dust and move it elsewhere. This will help farmers easily clean rice and sell it directly to buyers, saving them time and allowing them to get a fair price. The robotic arm will be designed using inexpensive materials like plastic, wood and an Arduino board so that farmers can afford it. It will demonstrate how robotics and automation can benefit society through applications like this that help individuals.

2. HOW ROBOTIC ARM WORKS

3. PROJECT GOAL
• Farmers can easily sell their rice directly to the buyer of rice.
• We want to make an robotic arm which can clean the dust of
rice in short time.
• We will make it in cheaper price so that farmer can afford
this robotic arm easily.

4. IMPACT OF PROJECT ON
SOCIETY
• Farmer can clean their rice dust by himself.
• Farmer can get actual price directly from buyer of rice.
• Time Saving
• Reasonable price for farmer
• Use for industrial purpose

9. DISCUSSION
• Pick & place robotic arm is used in industrial sector where
heavy mechanism is preferred . But aim of this project is to
make such robot which can be used by normal people or
farmer . For this very available instrument is use . Proteus is
used for its simulation purpose.

10. PROJECT
TIMELINE
• Made by plastic wood and controlled by Arduino Uno.
• Camera to detect the rice dust.
• Image processing will pick the dust and put that another
place.
• Grip to pick a small thing like rice or lentils.
• The small width gripper help to pick rice dust as well.
