DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF A BLUETOOTH CONTROLLED FLOOR CLEANING ROBOT

Abstract: As technology continues to advance, there is a growing interest among researchers in creating robots that can simplify human lives. One area of focus is domestic robots, which are gradually making their way into households, although the market is still relatively new and developing. Despite this, predictions suggest that there will be significant growth in the adoption of domestic robots. The objective of this project is to design and implement a Floor Cleaning Robot through an Android Application. This robot aims to streamline the cleaning process by providing an alternative to manual vacuuming. The primary goal is to develop a prototype of a Floor Cleaning Robot using key components such as Raspberry Pi, L298N Motor Drivers, 12V DC Motors, and a 5V Submersible DC pump motor. The Raspberry Pi3 functions as the central control unit for the cleaning robot. The mopping function can be activated or halted at any given point as per user requirements. The mopping brush, powered by a dedicated DC motor, is responsible for the mopping operation, with its control signals originating from the central controller.
