OBSTACLE AVOIDING ROBOT WITH VACCUME CLEANER

What is robot?
A robot is a mechanical or virtual intelligent agent that can perform tasks automatically or with guidance, typically by remote control. In practice a robot is usually an electro-mechanical machine that is guided by computer and electronic programming.

Role of robotics in todays world

ROBOTICS is fast growing and interesting field. It is simplest way for latest technology modification. The ROBOT has sufficient intelligence to cover the maximum area of provided space.

IR Obstacle Avoiding Robot

This robot uses IR (Infra Red) sensors and two IR transmitting circuitry. When the obstacle comes in path of robot IR beam is reflected from the obstacle then sensor detect the obstacle and decides to avoid the obstacle by taking left or right turn.

With Vacuum Cleaner ..

A blower is used in it having on/off switch which will suck the dust and other small particles come near it and do the work of cleaning and behave as vacuum cleaner.

Software Used

ExpressPCB This is software use to design pcb layout it is very easy to use have various component to work with let us see how it work.Since it is difficult to make a layout without having a circuit diagram, constructing a circuit diagram in ExpressSCH is strongly recommended.

Applications
It can be used for avoiding concealed paths. It is use as weight lifter. In Mines.

Future Scope Of This Project

Adding a Camera:
If the current project is interfaced with a camera (e.g. a Webcam) robot can be driven beyond line-of-sight & range becomes practically unlimited as networks have a very large range.

Use as a fire fighting robot :

By adding temperature sensor, water tank and making some changes in programming we can use this robot as fire fighting robot.

Component Used

Microcontroller [89C2051] L293D 7805 TSOP4838 Motor PCB Battery Crystal Oscillator (11.059MHz) Capacitor

Transistor Tyres Blower Connector Resistor

Conclusion
Thus, we believe that our project will be beneficial for various purposes & hence our efforts will be fruitful.
