Introduction
• Waste management is the big issue globally and it needs serious attention. There is no proper
management of waste and garbage in rural and urban area in India, which may cause threat to
health security, hygiene, human safety and wild life safety.

• Manual garbage collection and waste management is the good source to generate employment but
there are some issues associated with it, like some time there is unavailability of manual labor for
days such as in maintaining railway tracks. There is a big concern of human safety when harmful
gases exist.

• In order to understand the need for a compact, cost effective and scalable system, and before
diving in to provide our own solution, We have designed a semi-autonomous garbage collector
robot which can do multiple functions. This robot sucks dust from floor and spray water in floor,
with the help of mop it wipes.

Abstract
• The primary aim is to introduce a way in which garbage could
be collected and disposed efficiently.
• To analyze the problem of garbage disposal at a school,
restaurant,
office, hotel, production plant or any other suitable location.
• Mainly for differently abled
• To design and develop a system for solving the problem.
• To test and maintain the implemented system.

Methodology
• Our project is divided into two main parts. We are designing a
system that collects garbage automatically through line and
cleans floor.
• For which we are designing an arena so that the machine will
follow the specific path and also manually by using Arduino and
Bluetooth module.
• The machine can be controlled by software which will give
command to the robotic jaw to collect the stationary waste.
• It also has the characteristic to get controlled by
voice command which makes the robot to collect the
garbage according to the given command.
