Abstract This work presents an integrated remote-controlled robotics framework with computer-aided fault detection using deep learning. Robotic execution in real time is coupled with intelligent fault analysis in the presented framework to reduce human intervention and make the system more robust. A Raspberry Pi-equipped mobile robot with a high-resolution webcam is controlled remotely using a Python-based platform developed with Pygame and socket programming. The robot captures video information from its environment and uploads it to a cloud platform (Google Colab) for processing and defect classification.
Leveraging a transfer learning approach, the system employs the MobileNet architecture, pre-trained on labeled images of mechanical faults, including misalignment, blockage, and surface wear. The images captured are analyzed with TensorFlow in the cloud to ascertain defect occurrence and type. When a fault is detected, the system is able to automatically initiate recovery actions based on pre-configured rules, significantly boosting operational autonomy.
Experimental evaluation was conducted within a simulated fault condition indoor laboratory environment. The model achieved a high classification accuracy of 91%, precision and recall up to 0.90 and 0.93, respectively. These readings affirm the model's superiority in detecting and responding to mechanical faults across various environments.
System architecture centers around modularity, allowing future upgradeability by reinforcement learning algorithms or more detailed sensory inputs. While encouraging, there are still problems of light sensitivity as well as generalization to new fault types. Nevertheless, the work illustrates the integrability of robotic control, machine vision, and cloud AI toward achieving intelligent autonomous robotic systems for manufacturing.
