Development of an Autonomous Floor Mopping Robot Controller using Android Application

Abstract

This research presents the development of an autonomous floor mopping robot controller using an android application. The mopping robot was designed to solve the technical challenges that is faced in the daily chores of cleaning in order to aid the convenience of most people who are extremely busy in their chores. The robot was controlled using a mobile app via a smart phone with the aid of a Bluetooth module, in which it receives the guide on the path to navigate.
