HAND GESTURE CONTROLLED ROBOT AND OBSTACLE AVOIDANCE SYSTEM USING ARDUINO FOR CLEANING APPLICATION

Abstract

With the advancement of technology, robots are getting more consideration of researchers to make life of mankind pleasant. This project describes the gesture control and obstacle avoidance robot which can be controlled by our hands for cleaning applications. This robot operates in physical mode as well as automatic mode that can perform all cleaning activities such as dry cleaning, wet cleaning and sweeping. The features like battery status indication through alarm sound and full dust bag indication are added. In addition to it, for commercial purpose it will save the time and enhance the lifestyle of mankind. In this paper using technologies are Arduino microcontroller, accelerometer, ultrasonic sensor and GSM module. Cleaning part having the components are motors, roller brushes, cleaning mop, the dust bag and 12V rechargeable battery is used as power supply. In manual mode, RF module had been used to transmit and receive the information between user and robot.
