Project Summary

Waste is an environmental problem that is increasing with every passing year and hard to be resolved entirely. In most of the countries, garbage from various places are dumped into rivers, reservoirs, or waterways. We often see people throw their waste after picnic into lakes and rivers. The rubbish can clog the flow of water, causing water to become dirty and smelly so that it often overflows and causes disasters, including flooding. How to clean waste from water areas requires extensive resources, for example, by cleaning staff and using excavators. This project aims to provide an alternative solution to the problem of waste in water areas by developing robotics technology capable of operating in water areas. Smart Aqua Cleaner will be an eco-robotic boat with the main task of collecting waste from water.

Project Objectives

The main objectives of  "Smart Aqua Cleaner" project is to

• Develop a robotic boat to run on water.
• Detect and collecte garbage from water.
• Control the robot by mobile app

Project Implementation Method

Smart Aqua Cleaner will be developed for cleaning the water from garbage. For this purpose, a robotic boat will be designed for detecting and collecting garbage with the help of a camera and robotic arm. The garbage will be detected by camera and classified into three main components: plastic waste, green waste, and others using AI trained model. A WIFI module will be used to connect the robot and mobile. This system will be an IOT based system using image sensor and hardware for different purposes like Node MCu, Image sensor, Motor Driver (L298), Moto Gear, Wheels, Wires, battery.

Benefits of the Project

The benefits of this system includes:

1. Automated cleaning of garbage from water surfaces
2. No need of labour and expensive equipments
3. Weather proof robotic boat that can run on water
4. Automated control by mobile app

Technical Details of Final Deliverable

Smart Aqua Cleaner is a robotic boat that can run on water to detect and clean garbage from the water surface. It is fully automated that can be controlled by mobile application.

It consists of Node MCu, L298, Moto Gear, Wheels, Wires, battery, board, camera, robotic arm, WIFI module, mobile application, and Arduino software. These software and hardware devices will help with the accurate working of the robotic boat. WIFI module will help to connect the robot to your mobile. Battery helps in charging the device. The robotic arm will help in collecting the garbage. Moto gear will be used to operate and change direction of boat.

This system also has a feature to monitor the garbage through mobile phone without human involvement. This project aims to provide an alternative solution to the problem of waste in water areas by developing robotics technology capable of operating in water areas. Smart Aqua Cleaner will be an eco-robotic boat with the main task of collecting waste from water.
