The aim of this thesis is to develop a stereo vision system to locate and classify objects moving on a conveyor belt. The vision system determines the locations of the objects with respect to a world coordinate system and class of the objects. In order to estimate the locations of the objects, two cameras placed at different locations are used. Image processing algorithms are employed to extract some features of the objects. These features are fed to stereo matching and classifier algorithms. The results of stereo matching algorithm are combined with the calibration parameters of the cameras to determine the object locations. Pattern classification techniques (Bayes and Nearest Neighbor classifiers) are used to classify the objects. The linear velocity of the objects is determined by using an encoder mounted to the shaft of the motor driving the conveyor belt. A robot can plan a sequence of motion to pick the object from the conveyor belt by using the output of the proposed system.

"High precision CNC motion control"
Ay, Gökçe Mehmet; Dölen, Melik; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2004)
This thesis focuses on the design of an electrical drive system for the purpose of high precision motion control. A modern electrical drive is usually equipped with a current regulated voltage source along with powerful motion controller system utilizing one or more micro-controllers and/or digital signal processors (DSPs). That is, the motor drive control is mostly performed by a dedicated digital-motion controller system. Such a motor drive mostly interfaces with its host processor via various serial comm...
Construction of an experimental radar system
Kılıçoğlu, Nezaket; Koç, Seyit Sencer; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2010)
In this thesis, an Experimental Radar System is designed and constructed for use in experimental radar studies such as clutter measurement and target detection, both in the laboratory and outdoor. COTS laboratory equipments are utilized as hardware elements of the radar and MATLAB is used as signal processing and user interface software tool. Vector signal generator (as transmitter), spectrum analyzer with vector signal analysis (as receiver), a high power amplifier, a low noise amplifier, horn antennas and...
A programmable control unit for industrial applications
Güngör, Mustafa Kemal; Hızal, Mirzahan; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2003)
In this thesis, the automation of the long term and cyclic processes by using a programmable control unit is aimed. To achieve this goal, timing relays and various microcontrollers are investigated. PIC microcontroller is chosen to implement the control unit due to its advantages like high speed, Harvard and RISC architecture, low cost and flexibility for programming. Theory of the PIC microcontrollers is studied and a controller unit to be used in the mentioned processes is designed. Some features are adde...
Modeling and simulation of a navigation system with an IMU and a Magnetometer
Kayasal, Uğur; Özgören, Mustafa Kemal; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2007)
In this thesis, the integration of a MEMS based inertial measurement unit and a three axis solid state magnetometer are studied. It is a fact that unaided inertial navigation systems, especially low cost MEMS based navigation systems have a divergent behavior. Nowadays, many navigation systems use GPS aiding to improve the performance, but GPS may not be applicable in some cases. Also, GPS provides the position and velocity reference whereas the attitude information is extracted through estimation filters. ...
Control system design for a haptic device
Bideci, Süleyman; Konukseven, Erhan İlhan; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2007)
In this thesis, development of a control system is aimed for a 1 DOF haptic device, namely Haptic Box. Besides, it is also constructed. Haptic devices are the manipulators that reflect the interaction forces with virtual or remote environments to its users. In order to reflect stiffness, damping and inertial forces on a haptic device position, velocity and acceleration measurements are required. The only motion sensor in the system is an incremental optical encoder attached to the back of the DC motor. The ...
