Artificial Intelligence is seen as a potential contributor in many industries and also in everyone’s life. Transporting heavy loads is indeed difficult for humans to perform especially for elderly. This project focuses on solving the problem in the library of University Teknologi PETRONAS. An inexpensive, mobile and efficient robot is proposed to perform in this project. The robot is able to carry books and pass it to Book Sorter to place the books on the shelves. In this report, the functionalities of the robot have been discussed in detail. Moreover, the proposed design of the robot has also been attached. A study of load balancing, the speed of the robot surface type are conducted. The design has been tested with three parameters to obtain the optimum design of the robot. The design was further enhanced as it is necessary to meet the objectives of this project.
