This status report provides updates on the progress of a team's project to design a device that detects irregularities in perishable goods using a robotic arm and image processing. The team has taken images of moldy strawberries, designed a stand for the arm's gripper and brush, and completed an initial image processing algorithm. Upcoming tasks include testing the robotic arm schematic, designing a PID controller for the arm, and acquiring more image data for testing the detection algorithm.
