Autonomous devices are used in many fields
today. If an example is given about these fields; military, space, health,
industry and agriculture can be said. With the development of driverless
vehicle technology, it is expected that the transportation sector will be
included in this field in the future. With the entry of the logistics industry
into this field, one of the biggest problems it will face is getting the
vehicle ready to go as soon as possible.
Nowadays,
new methods are being developed for charging electric vehicles and one of these
methods is to perform charging with cable connection using robotic systems.
Today, companies such as Tesla and Volkswagen have made great progress in this
regard, but the development of this technology dates back to years ago, and the
data received from various pressure sensors and proximity sensors and image
processing methods have been used together.
In this study, the charging process was tried to
be performed using only image processing methods, without the need for an
additional sensor. In the study, QR code technology was used and the operations
were performed by bringing the central point and width of the QR code to the
specified value range. In the study, the effect of the structure of the robot
arm and the actuators used greatly affect the performance of the system. The
charging process started in 4 minutes for the closest location, and 12 minutes
at the farthest location. With more sensitive actuators and a mechanically
better designed robotic arm, these times are estimated to be reduced by 4
times.
