Abstract

• Marine pollution is increasing due to industrial


and plastic waste, harming aquatic life. This
study proposes a low-cost, lightweight, solar-
powered garbage collection robot designed
using SolidWorks to clean water surfaces
efficiently.
Introduction
• Water covers 71% of Earth’s surface, providing
habitat for billions of species. Increasing
waste, especially plastics, threatens marine
ecosystems. A robotic solution is needed to
clean water surfaces efficiently and
sustainably.
Problem Statement
• Plastic pollution in water bodies causes severe
environmental and health issues. Existing
manual cleaning methods are inefficient and
hazardous. A cost-effective, autonomous
cleaning solution is required.
Existing Solutions
• Several robotic designs have been developed
for water surface cleaning:
• - Manual and remote-controlled robots
• - AI-based garbage collection robots
• - IoT-enabled and autonomous robots
Proposed Conceptual Design
• A solar-powered water surface garbage
cleaning robot with:
• - Autonomous navigation and cleaning
• - Solar energy utilization
• - Efficient garbage collection mechanism
Design Components & Working
Principle
• Main components:
• - Four paddle wheels powered by BLCD
motors
• - Grid conveyor system for garbage collection
• - Solar panels for energy generation
• Working:
• - The robot moves using paddle wheels
• - The conveyor system collects garbage and
stores it in a removable hopper
Technical Specifications
• - Dimensions: 2600mm × 2080mm × 1700mm
• - Weight: 970 kg
• - Power: Solar panel and battery
• - Sensors: Camera, Encoder
• - Propulsion: Four BLCD motor-powered
paddle wheels
Advantages & Future Scope

• Future Scope:
• - AI-based navigation for improved autonomy
• - Enhanced sensors for better garbage
detection
Conclusion & References
• The proposed solar-powered water surface
cleaning robot provides a sustainable solution
to marine pollution. Future improvements can
enhance its efficiency and autonomous
capabilities.
