TARA Development for Small Industrial Applications

Abstract

In this paper, the design & development of a TARA robotic system is presented. Table Assist Robot Arm (TARA) is a cutting-edge robotic system engineered to automate and simplify the table-setting process in hospitality and food service establishments. This overview introduces TARA, emphasizing its primary features, advantages, and potential uses. TARA boasts state-of-the-art robotic arms and sensors that empower it to undertake diverse table-setting tasks, from organizing cutlery and arranging plates to folding napkins and positioning condiments. The system operates with intricate algorithms to ensure accurate and efficient table setting, and its modular design facilitates seamless customization to accommodate varied table configurations and dining settings. The work carried out is the second semester mini-project by the students of Electronics & Communication Engineering under the guidance of the faculties.
