Enhancing Human-Robot Collaboration in Disassembly Processes Through Vision-Based Hardware Detection
摘要
In the interests of efficient remanufacturing, this paper provides an overview of the most effective approach for disassembling end-of-life products through a comparison of available methods, involving the use of computer vision and robots. It also outlines a very flexible approach to locating hardware components in electronic waste (e-waste). This case study focuses on the process of extracting components with a view to recycling or reusing them. Using computer hardware as an illustration, the aim is to find the right disassembly method and to allocate tasks appropriately. Prioritizing the HRC method, is particularly effective for disassembling the computer, as both the human and the robot can work simultaneously on it. In addition, the object detection system connected to the robot was trained using a dataset of computer hardware. The YOLO (You Only Look Once) has been chosen as the most appropriate algorithm. This enables our robot to detect the components it needs at the extraction station.
