Colour based identification and sorting of industrial items using Labview

Abstract

This paper focuses on Colour based separation of Industry based products or raw materials using LabVIEW Software for creation of process accurate to Colour identification using Colour Spectrum tool (an add-on of LabVIEW 2023 QI software), various devices used in the project are real-time sensing and actuating devices. Colour Sensing and separation is a very useful application in Food processing, Plastic product based Industries, Marble Industry etc. In this model we use Arduino UNO, USB Webcam, Solenoid Pusher, 12V Electric motor and other Framework modules. This module works based on live action and response type of Industrial process where time is of the essence. LabVIEW software being an integral part of creation of the process and automation, has a number of tools to offer and be used to interface with external devices through wired connection.
