About Batmen

Solution

  A compact, rugged, and smart robot that can traverse all terrains and collect plastic debris using a scooping mechanism, contributing to cleaner public spaces and environmental sustainability. 

Additional Info

Our Batmen project uses an ESP32 microcontroller, along with various sensors such as ultrasonic and IR sensors for detection and interaction. Motor drivers are used to control DC motors/actuators, enabling movement or mechanical actions within the system. The hardware is powered using a battery setup with appropriate voltage regulation. A separate code was developed on the Arduino IDE to handle sensor inputs, process logic, and control the outputs through the ESP32.
