Laid groundwork and developed 1st working prototype for automating RF (Radio Frequency) modules testing using Universal Robotic-arm UR3 and LitePoint testers within 55 days.
Developed a vacuum system architecture and 3D printed independently controlled multi suction cup gripper to grasp RF components varying from 7mm diameter to 150 mm size square.
Designed 3D printed fixtures to create a secure mounting location for pick area of RF connectors, modules and carrier boards to ensure accuracy and smooth operation.
Used URscript for motion planning of UR3 robotic arm and TCP/IP Client-server communication method using python to communicate with external devices (camera and LitePoint tester).
Incorporated computer vision (eye on hand camera setup) using geometric methods with automation setup to detect and localize RF components.
