Wi-Fi Controlled Multi-sensor Robotic Car

Abstract

Robotics Automation is a sector that is rapidly expanding. Industrial robots have become quite prevalent in sectors all around the world in recent years. Their popularity is growing every day as a result of their increased production, appropriateness, and profitability. In the industrial sector, robotics has ushered in a revolution. As a result, we should keep an eye on what’s coming next, because the robotics sector is wide, every day robots contribute to the advancement of engineering around the globe. It reduces human work and can be used in a variety of domains, including military, surveillance, and industrial pick and place. Along with people, they provide many benefits such as lower operational costs, greater safety, increased efficiency, reduced injuries, and higher output. When compared to people, robots are far faster, more precise, and can operate 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Their reputation is at an all-time high in today’s world as a result of all of their skills. The holistic approach is proving to be a boon, where communication, mechanical, embedded and electronics are together creating a powerful robot with high flexibility and feasibility. The goal of this project is to create a prototype of a smartphone-controlled robot car that can perform a variety of tasks to create a robot that is both powerful and adaptable while using as little technology as possible. The Node MCU is employed as the key component in this project, with which all of the other components are interfaced. With the help of a Wi-Fi module, the developed car may be controlled wirelessly via a smartphone. When the ultrasonic sensor detects an obstruction, a notice is sent to the smartphone. To enable explosion sensing and detection, a mix of temperature, gas, and fire sensors is used. Humans can be saved from a dangerous place. It can be useful in detecting other forms of accidents where the atmosphere is very dangerous to humans, such as operating around toxic or radioactive products or the easily explodable propane tank. The future scope of this project is to establish the same connection but make the bot intelligent and autonomous.
