1. 1. Robot arm with object detection for waste management

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

   Author : Albin Gunnarsson; Dag Ehlin; [2023]
   Keywords : Mechatronics; Raspberry Pi; stepper motors; cylindrical robot arm; machine learning;

   Abstract : Recycling is becoming more crucial due to the fast pace of consumerism. This thesis explores how well a robot arm, with three degrees of freedom, can be implemented to give an autonomous recycling process. After the prototyping phase it was found that a cylindrical robot arm was best suited for the project. READ MORE

   Abstract : Trashandlitter discarded on the street is a large environmental issue in Sweden and across the globe. In Swedish cities alone it is estimated that 1.8 billion articles of trash are thrown to the street each year, constituting around 3 kilotons of waste. One avenue to combat this societal and environmental problem is to use robotics and AI. READ MORE

5. 4. Evaluation of Instance Segmentation Methods in the Context of Construction Waste

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematik LTH

   Author : Emil Sandelin; [2021]
   Keywords : Image analysis; Instance segmentation; Mask RCNN; SOLOv2; Mathematics and Statistics;

   Abstract : With the progress made within the field of computer vision the last few years, it is starting to become possible to perform instance segmentation in real time with relatively cheap hardware. This paper's main purpose is to investigate different methods of instance segmentation in the specific case of segmenting construction waste with only a single class. READ MORE
