Abstract:
Presently, manually handled device is commonly used for cutting the grass over the field which creates pollution and loss of energy. .The wireless grass cutter system puts forth an automated lawn mower mechanism. This will reduce the effort required for cutting grass in the lawns and solar power used will help to contribute in lowering pollution. The robotic vehicle is equipped with a grass cutter blade that allows for grass cutting at high RPM. The system has a smart functionality that allows it to cover the complete area of a lawn or garden by detecting corners using ultrasonic sensor and moving in a raster manner in order to cover the entire area. This efficient system uses an Arduino Mega microcontroller in order to achieve this functionality. The Arduino will act as the brain of the project which will send commands to the grass cutter. It also controls the movement of motors which help for the movement of the cutter.
