The team’s client is Orthodyne Electronics, a company that produces wire bonding equipment for semiconductor, automotive, and industrial purposes. The goal of this project was to write a computer program to help operate a robotic arm. More specifically, we were tasked with writing an algorithm that takes image input from a camera. Based on this information, the algorithm tells the robotic arm where it ought to move to accomplish its tasks.
