Abstract

This paper proposes a lawnmower which operates on solar power, eliminating the use of internal combustible engines that uses fossil fuel. This new design has no emission and hence there is no pollution. A microcontroller is used in this work to control the entire operating process of the lawnmower or the grass cutter. An ultrasonic sensor is used to detect obstacles; DC motors are used for the robot chassis and cutting blades. All the electromechanical devices used in this cutter are powered by solar panels placed on trucks and trailers. The key objective of this design is to keep the environment clean with reducing noise pollution and clean air.

Keywords
