Project Title

Room Disinfecting Robot

Project Area of Specialization RoboticsProject Summary

Room Disinfecting Robot (UV Robot) is a teleoperated robot equipped with a UV light system and sanitizer bottle spray. The system contains a moving robot vehicle and a ground station controller (GCS). The robot can disinfect and kill diseases, viruses, bacteria, and other types of harmful organic microorganisms in the environment, with ultraviolet light, by breaking down their DNA-structure.

Project Objectives

The aim of this project is to make a Robot that will disinfect the infected areas to prevent and reduce the spread of virus and harmful germs.

The objectives of project are:

  1. Development of Robot
  2. Kill Virus and Germs
  3. Time Reduction
  4. Reduces Human Workload
Project Implementation Method

In this phase, we have designed all the block diagrams and flowcharts. Then we have started working to assemble the robot chassis kit. Tested all the motors of chassis and discussed how to manage the resources of the  robot chassis boards. We have built and developed a simple prototype of robot that follows the path. Verified and validated its working. We have tried to control the robot through mobile application and succeeded to move it in any direction. We will implement and develop the autonomous algorithms and create the android mobile application which will provide us real time location of the robot. We will lead this simple prototype circuit to slightly complex circuit to implement the self moving and self barrier detection robot. After his implementation, we will use UV rods and sanitizer bottle spray in order to kills the germs and bacteria to make the environment clean and safe.

Benefits of the Project

The project consists of UV raditions rods that emit UV all over the room and sanitizer bottle spray taht will disinfect the entire surrouding within few mintues. The highlighting feature is that it will automatically charge and autonomously move. Within a specificed time interval, it starts working and disinfecting again. The harmfull bacteria and germs which are in the air will be killed and the resources will be consumed minimal and cost of the project is also reasonable. 

Technical Details of Final Deliverable

In this project we intend to develop a robot which will be able to disinfect the contaminated surfaces or public areas without using any remote control. All the activities performed by the robot will be autonomous. We will only keep the records by monitoring and analysis its behavior. The robot will automatically awake when the specified intervals wil be completed and started disinfecting again.
