Abstract: Various developments in the technologies over the industrial sectors, Robots are implemented to perform the several processes like picking and placing objects by using a human hand like structures. These robotic manipulators are mainly employed in the areas which are radioactive or hazardous or the place not accessible by the humans. It uses both direct pneumatics and inverse pneumatics. Underwater object or material grasping is a challenging task in these days. Here we are going to design and implement the robot manipulator at low-cost for object grasping process. The 3 DOF underwater robot manipulator can be developed by using the servo motors embedded in a mechanical setup. A camera based system is used to identify the objects to be grasped. These whole processes can be controlled by using Raspberry pi 3 as a central processor. The movement of the robot manipulator is controlled by using position control joystick through Internet of Things (IoT).
Keywords: Robot Manipulator, Direct Pneumatic, Inverse Pneumatics.
