Abstract—This paper introduces an innovative Sorting Robotic Arm (SRA) that combines the precision and speed of a Selective Compliance Assembly Robot Arm (SCARA) with the advanced object detection capabilities of the Grounding Dino model. The system enables real-time identification and sorting of various objects with exceptional accuracy, making it suitable for dynamic industrial environments. Leveraging state-of-the-art Artificial Intelligence (AI), the SRA can recognize and classify items efficiently, significantly reducing manual labor and operational errors. The modular design of the robotic arm allows for easy customization and scalability, facilitating seamless integration into a wide range of applications such as recycling facilities, logistics and warehousing, and agricultural seed sorting. The SCARA configuration ensures a compact form factor, fast cycle times, and high repeatability, ideal for precision-driven tasks. By merging robust robotic hardware with intelligent AI-driven perception, this paper proposes a transformative solution to modern sorting challenges. The SRA enhances productivity, accuracy, and efficiency, offering a practical and forward-looking approach to automated material handling, logistics and warehousing, seed sorting in agriculture.

Keywords—Sorting Robotic Arm (SRA), selective compliance assembly robot arm, Grounding Dino model, object detection, object localization
