Usage of robotic system based on "Lego NXT" for automation of creation of digital catalogue of mineralogical museum of DonNTU.

T.Moskaluk A.Kharitonov.

The purpose of this article is to review the creation, construction, programming and usage of robotic system Multiframe Automatic Universal Device", based on " Lego Mindstorms NXT " platform and "Lego NXT" controller , for automation and simplification of creation of digital catalogue of exhibits of mineralogical museum of Donetsk national technical university. This article provides information about the construction, principles and algorithms of system's functioning, the concepts of programming in "Lego MINDSTORMS NXT" development environment, based on "National Instruments LabVIEW". Also, the questions of ratio between quality and volume of captured material, problematics of capturing and processing of large volumes of input materials, and methods of solution of those problems, lossless on the resulting material, are being discussed. The perspectives of further development in the field of creation and usage of three-dimensional images of real objects, in medicine including plastic surgery, orthopedics, traumatology and prosthetics, science and the entertainment field are being discussed too. The relevance of an article is connected to simplification of time consuming process of capturing three-dimensional images, and improvement of the quality and preciseness of solution of the problem in situation of big volumes of work. Keywords: Automation, robot, capturing, museum,3-Dimensional capture, controller
