    “Bottles Separator Robot”
    (2025) Shareef Mwafy; Jafar Sweity
    This project focuses on developing a robot that can autonomously identify and sort objects into metal or plastic categories. The robot uses a combination of artificial intelligence (AI) and image processing to achieve this. The system is equipped with a camera that captures images of the objects. These images are then processed using an AI model designed to distinguish between metal and plastic. Once the robot has identified the material of each object, it sorts them accordingly and places them into the appropriate bins.The project demonstrates how integrating AI with robotics can enhance sorting efficiency and contribute to better waste management. By combining hardware and software, this robot aims to streamline the process of separating recyclable materials, showcasing the practical applications of advanced technologies in everyday tasks

    Drill and Plow Machine
    (2024) Sama Abosair, Fatima Zhraa Raeq Saidi; Fatima Zhraa Raeq Saidi
    This project focuses on developing a robot designed to assist farmers in ploughing and digging tasks, reducing the physical stress associated with manual labor, especially during extreme weather conditions. The robot is equipped with a plough and a digging tool and is powered by lithiumion batteries. It operates through an application that provides two basic modes of operation: an autonomous ploughing mode where the robot ploughs the soil while avoiding obstacles, and a ploughing and digging mode that allows the farmer to have full control over the robot’s movements. The digging mode also allows for precise control of the digging operations. In addition, the robot was tested in real field conditions, showing a significant reduction in the physical effort required from farmers and an improvement in the efficiency of ploughing and digging.

    Ball-E
    (2025) Sohaib Arafat; Osama Dweikat
    The project involves a robotic system for ball collection and sorting according to specified characteristics, such as color, size, or type. For example, tennis balls, ping pong balls, and beach balls. This robotic mobile arm will be able to move around the playing area, picking up the balls and sorting them without human interference. The thing that differentiates our project from the others is the approach. We are trying to develop a custom Object Detection Model (ODM), for the detection and classification of the balls, which was trained on almost 30,000 images, supported with an OpenMV H7 or Luxonis OAK-D camera for the best outcome of the job. The arm will be equipped with various sensors-still to be defined-ensuring retrieval and sorting in an easy way, even for those balls whose size or type is different. It will be able to move in all directions with great efficiency due to the use of a stepper and servo motor. The biggest challenge in this project will be the design of a gripping mechanism that will be able grasp different kinds of balls without damaging them or the robot rollover. The gripping arm should be adjusted to variations in ball size and material to ensure a secure but light grip. The system will also contain sensors for obstacle detection, such as ultrasonic or infrared sensors, with no interference from movement with the camera. A control panel gives the user commands for the robot. It will have a Raspberry Pi main controller for the ODM and camera, while another secondary microcontrollers are used to control the motors and manage sensors for the robotic arm. This ensures a fully automated process in the sorting and retrieval of the balls.

    ChairUp(Smart WheelChair
    (2024) Majd Hamadneh; Manal Khalili
    The development of a smart wheelchair represents a significant humanitarian advancement, addressing the unique challenges faced by individuals with physical disabilities who possess dreams and ambitions. Our project aims to facilitate greater independence and ease of life for these individuals by integrating advanced technologies into a wheelchair design. Key features include voice-operated control through cutting-edge voice recognition technology, allowing effortless and intuitive control for those who cannot use their arms. The wheelchair is equipped with sophisticated sensors for obstacle detection and avoidance, ensuring safe and uninterrupted movement in all directions. A novel system for smooth stair ascension enables seamless and safe traversal of stairs, expanding mobility across various terrains. Advanced lifting or extension mechanisms provide high-reaching capability, allowing users to access elevated areas such as high shelves or counters. Additionally, state-ofthe- art sensors monitor vital signs like heart rate and blood pressure, offering real-time health and safety monitoring, with notifications and alerts in case of abnormal readings. By incorporating these features, the smart wheelchair not only enhances mobility but also empowers users to meet their needs independently, improving their quality of life and enabling them to pursue their goals with greater ease. In this project, the concept of automation includes several aspects, which is the automatic irrigation process, continuous temperature checks, and the provision of a ventilation system if necessary, in addition to providing protection for the farm in the event of rain, fire, or attempts to steal, and providing appropriate lighting to carry out the photosynthesis process in In the event of a shortage, in addition to providing a fertilization system that works automatically on a weekly basis, continuous examination of water tanks, and sending sms messages in the event of a decrease in the required limit.

    Livesmart
    (2023) Dania Nazzal; Marah Dmaide
    The world is witnessing a dramatic acceleration in the development and adoption of new technologies, the internet is also changing. People used to use the internet to connect to each other. But with the changes in recent years, the internet is starting to be used more to connect devices to each other (IoT). The Internet of Things (IoT) is one of the foremost buzzwords in computer science and information technology. It describes the fact that the Internet will be used more and more to connect devices to each other. In today’s connected world, the primary purpose of technology is to make our lives more comfortable, giving us more time for leisure activities. And this is what we did in our project, which is a weather station, so that the technology was harnessed up for our service and for a more comfortable life. As we mentioned earlier, the project is weather station that monitors weather fluctuations by sensing the external environment. Based on the values read, some events will be performed, for example turning off or on the irrigation system based on the soil moisture level. It is also possible that this station will help us to live smart. Also, there is an uninterruptible power source that provides emergency power when the input power source fails. Also, we added a renewable energy source which is a solar technology the converts sunlight into electrical energy, and this is one of the most important steps in order to preserve the environment from pollution. There is actually an application for this idea already, but it still needs many improvements in order to reach the required level of efficiency.
