Abstract
Robot-based automation in chemistry accelerates material development but lacks safety in unsupervised environments. This paper introduces DenseSSD, a deep learning-based object detector, to improve safety by precisely locating transparent chemical vessels. DenseSSD achieves over 95% mean average precision (mAP), significantly outperforming existing detectors. Its robustness across varying conditions (solution colors, camera angles, backgrounds) makes it suitable for diverse lab settings, enhancing safety in automated material synthesis.
