Abstract - The autonomous cleaning bot is a state-of-the-art robotic system that utilizes advanced cutting-edge technology to automate the cleaning process. This paper aims at presenting the design and implementation of an autonomous cleaning robot that efficiently and effectively cleans a variety of indoor spaces, from homes to commercial buildings, using a combination of sensors, algorithms, and cleaning tools. Additionally, this can detect walls and obstacles. Using various sensors, a path planning algorithm is developed to enable the robot to efficiently move and clean floors. Also, this robot can be controlled in a wireless manner via any Bluetooth-enabled device like smartphone or tablet. Localization algorithms, stereoscopic vision, wireless networks, and human-machine interaction are integrated to promote the working performance of this cleaning robot. The system's ability to navigate to specific locations according to the user’s ease and desire, in accordance with a map provided as predefined data, is showcased along with its capability to grasp objects and place them in designated locations, highlighting its improved perception and manipulation abilities. The robot is required to perform various functions such as cleaning the floor, picking up objects, and arranging them on the floor. For such a given floor task, the manipulability of the designated robot arms is analyzed through kinematics.
Keywords: Autonomous floor cleaner, Sensors, Motors, Bluetooth-enabled.
