This project focuses on moving a lettuce from one location to another and detecting the type of lettuce. This is a research project for Hydroplant Technologies, who wants to develop their own in-house solution and a starting point that they can develop further. For this project, we chose to develop an articulated robotic arm that can detect where a lettuce is in a 3 dimensional room. It shall identify the lettuce, detect its type, and then pick it up and move it to a designated area.

In the first sprint we worked on gripper concepts, robotics concepts, motor driver, networking and camera functionality.
In sprint 2 we worked on CAD and hardware, AI model training and ROS2. We now have a functional mechanical base, fine tuned object detection models, and a defined communication structure.
Sprint 3 included completion of mechanical assembly, Arduino modules (ROS2 and motor control), HMI and AI salad detection.
