ROBOTIC VACUUM CLEANER- Mechanical Project
Abstract
This progress report describes the early stages of the development of a vacuum cleaner robot prototype, both on hardware and software point of view. At this stage of the project the hardware installed is only the one needed for obstacle avoidance, the mechanical platform on which the hardware lies is a circle of wood with a diameter of 25 cm, with a hole in the middle where the vacuum cleaner fan is attached. This initial hardware is successfully running simple algorithms for obstacle and stairs avoidance.
The future capabilities of the robot are also discussed, namely: more elaborated algorithms for obstacle and stairs avoidance, collision detection mechanism and some other behaviors such as fan motor overload (equal to bag full of trash) and low batteries (search for charging station).
APPLICATION SCOPE
- Robotic Vacuum Cleaner is developed to make cleaning process easier especially for working people.
- This Robotic Vacuum Cleaner is designed for specific area such as under beds.
HARDWARE COMPONENTS
- Robot Body
Robot Body is the mechanical part of the robot which contains wheels and vacuum
2. Microcontroller
- In our project we use Pic18f4620 microcontroller with 4MH frequency.
- In our project we used port C to control movement and speed of motors and we connect also sensors to port A for using ADC.
3. DC Motors
In our project we use two dc motors with 500mA, each motor controls two wheels hbridge L293B is used.
The motion has five states:
1.Forward
2.Backward
3.Left
4.Right
5.Circular direction
4. Sensors
- Act as sensing component to the environment. For Vacuum Cleaner Robot, sensors are used to detect obstacles.
- We used three sensors,
- IR which is sharp type of family GP2Y0A21YK0F and its distance measuring range is10 to 80 cm
- Ultrasonic type of Ez0 and it detects objects from 0-inches to 254-inches (6.45-meters) and provides sonar range information from 6-inches out to 254-inches with 1-inch resolution.
5. Power Supply
The main power supply in our circuit is rechargeable dc battery connected to mc7805ct regulator, and it provides 500mA to motors with 8V.

Humans create technology as an extension of our intelligence. I found very good on robot works,
One last question, I’ve noticed on a few other blogs/reviews that a lot of people get the tools free from the manufacturer to review. Will you tell me how I too can participate in that?
That looks like a great machine!! Any time you can get the kids helping with chores is a good one! 🙂
Shark Vacuum Cleaner Cleaner technology is just amazing and an awesome time and labor saver. In future models please include a couple more virtual walls. One is rarely enough! Also please make a mini version for half baths, laundry rooms, etc. http://bestsharkvacuums.com/shark-rotator-powerlight-professional-vacuum-cleaner-nv450-review/
