landmines Detection Robot
Project Area of Specialization Electrical/Electronic EngineeringProject SummaryRobotics and Artificial Intelligence are bringing innovatory changes in the world by introducing new technologies to make the world a safer place. The basic aim to employ a robotic method for landmine detection is to ascertain human safety and lessen human efforts. In this project we will be using robotics technology and Artificial Intelligence to detect Landmines in order to replace the manual methods which are being used that bring disaster to human life and property. We are dealing with Wireless Controlled Mines Detection Robot that is capable of detecting underground hidden mines. The robot has specified sensors that detect and locate the underground mines by sending their accurate GPS location to user and can avoid obstacles autonomously. It is a reliable technology to carry out the assignment and to guarantee the safety.
Project ObjectivesThe main objectives of this project are as follows:
- To design a landmine detecting robot with enhanced battery life, location accuracy and location marking.
- Making the project cost effective and reliable.
- Autonomous with multiple features and accuracy.
The project will be implemented in such a way that it will consist of two microcontrollers. One microcontroller is programmed to collect the GPS data (the location of the robot) and streamed video (from the video receiving module). The LCD, Spray Marker and LEDs (for indication) will also be connected to this microcontroller. The paint spray is used to mark the location of the landmine upon detection. LED indication is for warning and the LCD is used to display data in real time. The second microcontroller will be used to collect data from Sonar Sensors and Metal Detector. Sonar sensors will be used for obstacle detection and avoidance during movement of robot while Metal Detector will be used for landmine detection. The second microcontroller will also be used to convey the commands to H-Bridge module which controls the robot's movement through motors. The communication between the robot and the user is totally wireless while communication within the robot is through wires. The different modules and microcontrollers are connected through wires.
The working architecture of robot is designed in the figure below:
The main benefits of this project are as follows:
- To ascertain human safety and lessen human efforts.
- Safety of wildlife.
- Recovery of agricultural land.
- Replacing manual methods of landmine detection with robotic methods.
The robot will be controlled with self-learning algorithms (Artificial Intelligence). The robot will be using a camera for path planning (computer vision) and live broadcasting. The robot will have ultrasonic sensors fixed to it in order to locate and avoid the obstacles. The landmine can be detected with help of metal detector, once the landmine is detected, the robot will mark the location with paint spray and send its GPS location to the user wirelessly. The robot structure will be made with a material that can resist blasts up to certain limit. The robot actuation will be done with high powered, high torque DC motors supported by H-Bridge module that allows the robot to move in any direction.
