AUTONOMOUS AND REMOTE CONTROLLED WATER SURFACE GARBAGE COLLECTOR ROBOT
Project Area of Specialization RoboticsProject SummaryThe condition of lakes and ponds in majority of underdeveloped countries in miserable society is not paying attention on this growing problem there should be an efficient and cost effective way so that marine life and human life remains safe .There is a need to create a multipurpose robot which will be controlled by human and move autonomously, this water surface cleaning robot will be cost effective, low maintenance and will require less manpower. It will detect garbage automatically and will move towards the garbage to collect it.
Project ObjectivesTo make a robot based on autonomous movement and auto detection for collection of solid waste which floats on water surface.
Project Implementation MethodThis project consists of two methods, one is human controlled and other is automatically. In human controlled it is controlled by human using Bluetooth android application. This application will allow the user to move robot in the direction of garbage to collect it. In automatic control it follows autonomous movement mechanism which directs the robot to move the robot in different direction and does not require any human effort. It will detect the garbage using sonar sensor on the water surface and then move towards the garbage to absorb it in robot container. This robot will be charged using solar panel placed on the robot’s top surface and also by external voltage source.
Benefits of the Project- Water surface cleaner robot will operate on the algorithm that is autonomous movement and detection which will be cost effective and there will be less labor required by the user. The battery source will be charged by renewable energy source i.e. solar cell.
- The garbage will be detected automatically and robot will move towards the garbage itself by using sensors then it will be collected in the trash compartment if the robot faces obstacle it will change its path and moves towards nearest trash.
- This project will help to reduce the use of non-renewable energy sources and maintain clean and healthy environment, this will also reduce time consumption to clean water surfaces
- This system will be much easier to operate and eco-friendly.
First when it will be controlled by remote, user will direct the robot to move towards the floating waste to collect it.
In autonomous movement, sensor will detect the waste on water and then generates a pulse to aurdino which then directs the motor driver circuit through which propellers will move. Hence sensors will detect the garbage and then robot will move towards it.
