Abstract
The system solves a complex puzzle, namely a Pyraminx (Rubik’s pyramid), demonstrating the degree of movement complexity that the Kinova robotic arm can achieve. The system is composed of three important parts: the first one’s main purpose is to capture real time images from the Kinect sensor and to process them into input data for the second module. The second part, the core of the system, performs all necessary computations in order to make a movement decision based on the available data. The third part represents an interface with the robotic arm, transposing the decision from the second block into pure movement data, passed to the Kinova’s controller.
