RIVER CLEANING ROBOT

The Increasing pollution due to floating waste such as plastic bottles leaves and other debris poses a serious threat to aquatic ecosystem and Traditional manual methods for maintaining water quality demand significant human effort and require a considerable amount of time to complete. Often in effective in reaching hazardous are in accessible areas, to addresses this challenge This project focuses on the design and development of a river cleaning robot capable of collecting and removing floating debris from the water surface. The proposed system is an AI-enabled river cleaning robot built using a Raspberry Pi, camera module, and L298N motor driver. The camera continuously captures real-time images of the river, which are analyzed by the Raspberry Pi using artificial intelligence and computer vision algorithms to recognize floating waste materials. Based on the identified waste, control commands are generated to guide the robot movement toward the debris for effective collection
