| Abstract | Bowling machines have become increasingly popular for training batsmen, allowing them to practice for extended periods and improve their skills even in the absence of a bowler. This study presents the design, development, and testing of an automatic cricket-bowling machine, named the Robotic Bowling Machine (RBM), which includes a run-score display feature. The RBM simulates the arm action of various bowlers projected onto a screen, creating a realistic training experience. Since the machine does not require a person to feed balls manually, it operates autonomously, hence the term robotic. The RBM uses two rotating wheels to grip and release the ball, enabling precise control over the ball's trajectory at different angles. An Arduino board provides electronic control over the wheels, which are powered by Brushless DC motors, allowing the machine to adjust the ball’s speed, swing, and direction as needed. |
