This progress report describes the early stages of the development of a vacuum cleaner robot prototype both on hardware and software point of view.
Automatic vacuum cleaner robot project.
The ecovacs deebot ozmo t8 aivi is a pricey 2 in 1 robot vacuum and mop with excellent battery life the ability to identify and avoid obstacles and a unique home monitoring feature.
Here we propose an automated vaccum cleaner robotic system that allows for automatic cleaning of a particular area or room by covering the area using border analysis.
The idea is inspired by the famous vacuum cleaner robot roomba which is shown in the image below.
Our idea is to make a simple robot right from the scratch which can automatically avoid the obstacles while cleaning the floor.

Trust me people it s fun.
This is my first vacuum robot which it s main purpose is to allow anyone to have a cleaning robot without paying so much money to learn how they work to build a nice robot that you can modify update and program as much as you want and of course to vacuum all that annoying fluff.
Initially irobot decided to manufacture limited number of units but roomba immediately became a huge consumer sensation.
The system uses ultrasonic sensors for boundary sensing and operates accordingly in order to cover entire room.
Current robotic vacuum cleaners on the market produced by irobot and electrolux can cost up to 1700.
In 2002 irobot launched its first floor vacuum cleaner robot named roomba.
At this stage of the project the hardware installed is only the one needed for obstacle avoidance the mechanical platform on which the hardware lies is a circle of wood with a diameter of 25 cm with a hole in the middle where the vacuum cleaner fan is attached.
This robot is simple four wheeled vacuum cleaner which could smartly avoid obstacles and vacuum the floor at the same time.
The idea of a designing and building a device that can perform the same functions as the existing market brands on a budget of 50 was a challenge that we wanted to take on.
The best robot mops and vacuum and mop combos from irobot ilife ecovacs and roborock to automatically clean laminate hardwood tile and more.
The robotic system follows a zigzag path to cover entire room.
