Purpose

This paper aims to introduce a robot for adapting to sorting and transporting books works in a library.

Design/methodology/approach

Aiming to library books sorting and transporting business, a robot prototype was designed base on omnidirectional mobile platform. The kinematics of the omnidirectional mobile platform were analyzed, and the change trend of displacement and velocity was verified by simulated. Information acquisition and classification book was completed by recognizing book code images. Finally, an experiment environment for bookshelf scenes was built, and the robot’s book recognition, sorting and transporting capabilities were tested and validated.

Findings

The accuracy of the proposed book information recognition algorithm reaches 98% through iterative training optimization in this paper, effectively ensuring the sorting precision. The rotating storage compartments of the storage box structure effectively handles book sorting and categorization tasks. The developed mobile chassis has highly maneuverable translation and rotation motion capabilities.

Originality/value

This robot can recognize book information, sort books, autonomously plan routes and transport books to designated locations. Library staff will be relieved from the heavy sorting and transport works.
