ROBOT AS HEAVY VEHICLE DRIVER AND ELECTRIC TRANSPORT HIGHWAY USING PANTOGRAPH MECHANISM

The project “Arduino based Robot as a Heavy Vehicle Electric Transport Highway with Pantograph Mechanism” aims to design and implement an autonomous electric vehicle that can transport heavy loads on highways. The vehicle will use a pantograph mechanism to charge its battery from overhead electric lines while in motion. The vehicle’s movements will be controlled using an Arduino microcontroller, which will be programmed to follow predefined paths and avoid obstacles. The system will also include sensors for monitoring the vehicle’s speed, battery charge level, and the presence of obstacles. The proposed solution has the potential to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and increase energy efficiency, making it a promising alternative to traditional fossil fuel-based transportation systems.
