Abstract


Abstract

The mission pursuits at fabricating a grass slicing device system which makes the grass cutter motor run through solar energy. The solar Powered Grass reducing device" is a robotic automobile powered with the aid of solar power that also avoids boundaries and is able to automatic grass reducing. The system uses 12V battery to electricity the vehicle motion motors in addition to the grass cutter motor. A solar panel is used to charge the battery so that there's no need of charging it externally. The grass cutter and automobile motors are interfaced topic micro controller that controls the working of all of the vehicles. It is also interfaced to an ultrasonic sensor for impediment detection. The micro controller actions the car motors in forward path in case no impediment is detected. On impediment detection, the ultrasonic sensor monitors it and the micro controller thus stops the grass cuter motor to avoid any harm to or through the object/human/animal is at the manner. Micro controller then turns the car as lengthy because it gets clean of the object and then actions the grass cutter in ahead route once more otherwise it modifications the path.

Keywords: Arduino, Battery, DC motor, Relay, Solar Panel, Ultra sonic sensor.
