II.     LITERATURE REVIEW:

The project “Automatic Floor Cleaner with Smart Navigation Technology” is a pioneering endeavour aimed at enhancing the efficiency and convenience of indoor cleaning through the integration of advanced technology. The primary objective of this project is to develop a floor-cleaning device that not only removes dust, dirt, and stains from various surfaces but also incorporates smart features to navigate, detect obstacles, and clean autonomously [2]. Ultrasonic sensor helps the cleaner detect any obstacle in its path and avoid collisions by rerouting in real time [3].

The literature review for this project reveals a growing concern for hygiene and time-saving cleaning methods, particularly in urban households and commercial spaces where manual cleaning can be time-consuming and inconsistent. Traditional cleaning tools offer limited automation, mainly focusing on surface cleaning. However, advancements in Internet of Things (IoT) technology [4] and smart home integration have paved the way for more intelligent and efficient cleaning solutions.

Analyze the effectiveness of these technologies in maintaining hygiene and reducing manual effort. Examine literature related to real-time navigation and obstacle detection integrated into floor cleaning devices [5].

Integration and Communication: Investigate how automatic floor cleaners interact with smart home systems and mobile applications for remote control and monitoring [6].

Benefits and Challenges: Summarize the advantages of using automatic floor cleaners with intelligent navigation and automation. Address any challenges or limitations identified in the literature.

Case Studies and Examples: Highlight real-world examples or case studies where these systems have been implemented successfully.

III.  Technical Fields:

Description of the various components:

Here's a description of the components you mentioned and an estimation of power supply requirements:

 

1.  Servo Motor(SG-90):

The SG90 is a popular micro servo motor commonly used in hobbyist projects, robotics, and remote- controlled vehicles. It's known for its small size, lightweight, and relatively low cost. The SG90 can rotate approximately 180 degrees (90 degrees in each direction) and is controlled by sending PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) signals from a microcontroller or a servo controller. It's important to note that while the SG90 is a versatile and commonly used servo motor, its torque and precision may not be sufficient for some industrial or high-precision applications.

2.  Vibration Sensor:

A vibration sensor, also known as a vibration detector or vibration switch, is a device that detects vibration or shock and triggers a response. There are several types of vibration sensors, including piezoelectric sensors, which generate an electrical charge in response to mechanical stress; accelerometer-based sensors, which measure acceleration; and spring-mounted mass sensors. trigger a switch when they detect a sudden movement or vibration.

3.   Arduino Uno:

-                 The Arduino Uno is a popular microcontroller board known for its simplicity and ease of use.

-                 It operates on 5V DC and typically consumes around 50mA during normal operation.

-                 It's less power-hungry compared to the ESP32 but also less powerful in terms of processing capabilities.

4.  GSM MODULE

A GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) module is a device that enables communication between a microcontroller or other digital system and the GSM network. It allows devices to send and receive SMS messages, make voice calls, and connect to the internet over the GSM network.

GSM modules are commonly used in applications such as remote monitoring, tracking systems, security systems, and IoT (Internet of Things) devices that require wireless communication over long distances. They provide a reliable and widely available communication option for such applications.

5.  Power Supply:

-          To power all these components, you would need a stable and reliable power supply.

-          A common choice would be a 5V DC power supply capable of providing sufficient current to meet the peak demands of all components simultaneously.

-          Considering the maximum current requirements of the components mentioned (MQ2, MQ9, ESP32/Arduino Uno), a power supply capable of delivering at least 1A (1000mA) would be suitable.

-          However, it's always recommended to choose a power supply with some margin above the estimated maximum current draw to ensure stability and prevent voltage drops, especially during transient loads or when additional peripherals are connected.

When designing your power supply, ensure proper voltage regulation and consider factors such as efficiency, heat dissipation, and safety precautions to ensure reliable operation of your smart nose system in hazardous environments.
