Abstract

A tool that is utilised at several institutions all around the world is the whiteboard. Erasing the ink from the board, however, may be time-consuming and distracting. Modern houses with more automation are more convenient and need less time to clean. Despite the fact that robotic cleaners have made housecleaning simpler, most of them are too loud and huge to be used regularly. Therefore, to address these shortcomings, advancements in robotic cleaning technology are a sine qua non. Here, we discuss the creation of a portable and effective robotic cleaning robot for possible application in homes and offices. The developed robot is shaped like a disc, is furnished with cleaning tools, and is managed by an Arduino mega microcontroller. Two sweepers that are each driven by a 6 V DC motor and a retractable dustbin with an attached cooling fan assist it gather dirt. Two motor the robot's front caster wheel, which also controls turning, provide propulsion.  To help the robot navigate, four ultrasonic sensors that are 90 degrees apart from one another detect obstacles. The robot is powered by five batteries. It is a trashcan made of cardboard with a little blower that weighs around 2 kg. In this instance, we used an automated roller-based cleaning to reduce the amount of dust in the sweeper. The voltage was quite low. When fully charged, a battery can efficiently clean the floor for two hours while running constantly.When the ultrasonic sensor reads a distance of less than 25 cm, the sensor's distance number is set. When trying the ultrasonic sensor distance value, different situations were found. The road floor cleaning robot prototype's condition may be acquired at a distance more than 25 cm, however at a distance less than 25 cm, the condition of the robot prototype has ceased. With this feature, the device may be used both at home and at the office, making cleaning a completely autonomous activity.
