Abstract

Robotics is an emerging field in the world that brings drastic changes in Human life. This paper presents the improvement of a garbage pickup robot that operate on the sand. In this case, the proposed system can navigate and collect debris found on the beach. Autonomous trash-collecting robots have been considered the benchmark for mobile robot design. These include several tasks such as navigation, path planning, object detection, obstacle avoidance, task sequencing. In this type, the develop robot is manage to autonomously collect trash using an excavators like dotted hole claws. The picked-up trash is get separated into metallic and nonmetallic way and left off in a bucket attach to the robot which has separate partitions. In addition, in addition to detailing the system's design and construction, this paper presents the description of the developed embedded electronics modules, a motor closed-loop speed control system and the optical flow algorithms that allows the computer vision system to detect and avoid obstacles and track the cans to be collected. Also, it is connected to charging station through WIFI module. In this project, we have taken the ESP8266 wifi module as an antenna or we can say to developed a connection with the system. ESP8266 is a low-cost Wi-Fi microchip, with built-in TCP/IP networking software, microcontroller capability and strong connectivity with the microcontroller.
