Abstract :

In this work, we design a fully automated sanitizing robot to assure a covid free zone in complex urban atmospheres. To accomplish this, we develop the robotic system with Arduino based embedded controller. For automation and control, Bluetooth based wireless communication enabled. The proposed robotic system automatically handles the obstacles in the path with sensor arrangements. Further, the entire area of target places is covered by path planning algorithm. Implementation results show that this sanitizing robot can be automatically working with acceptable human response by conducting trials in many urban circumstances.
