In-Campus Semi-Autonomous Delivery Rover

The pace of technological change has always been brisk. To meet humans’ needs and expectations, technologies are continuously evolving and advancing. IoT technology is revolutionizing how the world and society work and has increasingly widespread use. Using IoT we have built an in-campus semi-autonomous delivery rover. This rover can be used for any delivery purpose it may be food or medicines, or for military purposes. It can also be used in extreme conditions like pandemics for the delivery of food, medicines, and clothes as it may be dangerous for humans to go. To demonstrate its use, we are using it for food delivery inside the college campus. The rover is built using an ESP8266, Motor drivers, and gear motors which are connected to Blynk IOT Cloud. Using these we can control our rovers remotely as there will be cameras attached to rovers using which we can see and control them. Currently, existing rovers use Raspberry Pi which is costly, and they have a limited range. But we have instead used Esp8266 which is a lot cheaper and more efficient than Raspberry Pi and using IoT we have made it accessible from any part of the world.
