Introduction

Automatic Robotic AMR stands for Automatic Mobile Robots for Autonomous Material Handling. It refers to a class of robots that are designed to autonomously transport and handle materials in various environments, such as warehouses, factories, hospitals, and distribution centers.

Code

sprite = Sprite('Tobi')

import time

roboticArm = RoboticArm(1,2,3,4,)

roboticArm.setgripperangle(90,145)
roboticArm.sethome()
while True:
	roboticArm.controlgripper("open")
	roboticArm.movexyzonebyone(0,200,15,1000)
	roboticArm.gotoinoneaxis(180,"Y",1000)
	roboticArm.controlgripper("close")
	roboticArm.gotoinoneaxis(150,"X",1000)
	roboticArm.controlgripper("open")
	roboticArm.sethome()
	roboticArm.controlgripper("close")
	time.sleep(1)
	roboticArm.controlgripper("open")
	roboticArm.movexyzonebyone(-60,160,10,1000)
	roboticArm.gotoinoneaxis(200,"Y",1000)
	roboticArm.gotoinoneaxis(15,"Z",1000)
	roboticArm.gripperaction("close")
	roboticArm.gotoinoneaxis(150,"X",1000)
	roboticArm.gripperaction("open")
	roboticArm.sethome()
	roboticArm.gripperaction("close")
	time.sleep(0.2)

Logic

1. Open the Pictoblox application.
2. Select the Python-based environment.
3. The code starts by importing the required modules, including the “quarky” module and the “RoboticArm” class from the “expansion_addon” module. These modules provide the necessary functionalities for controlling the robotic arm.
   
4. An instance of the RoboticArm class is created with four parameters (1, 2, 3, 4). These parameters likely represent some configuration values or settings for the robotic arm.
5. The gripper angle of the robotic arm is set to 90 and 145 degrees using the setgripperangle() method.
6. The sethome() method is used to set the home position() of the robotic arm.
7. The code enters a while loop that runs indefinitely (until the program is manually terminated. Inside the loop, various actions are performed using the robotic arm.
8. The gripper of the robotic arm is opened and closed using the gripperaction() method with the parameters “open” and “close” respectively.
9. The robotic arm is instructed to move in the XY plane using the movexyzonebyone() method. The parameters provided are the initial and final X coordinates (0 and 200), the Y coordinate (15), and the speed (1000).
10. The robotic arm is commanded to move to a specific position in a single axis (X, Y, or Z) using the gotoinoneaxis() method. The parameters include the target position, the axis, and the speed.
11. The program includes a few additional time.sleep(0.2) statements, which introduce short delays before the program repeats the looP.
12. Press Run to run the code.
