Abstrakt: The goal of the project is to build a portable, compact lawn mower system that uses solar energy to power the lawn mower engine. "Solar Powered Lawn Cutter with Water Sprinkler and Sweep" is a solar powered robot vehicle that can avoid obstacles and mow the lawn automatically. The 12V battery powers both the car's propulsion engine and the lawnmower's engine. Solar panels charge the battery, so no additional charging is required. The motors of the lawn mower and vehicle are connected to a microcontroller that controls all the motors. It also connects with an ultrasonic sensor that detects obstacles. If there are no obstacles, the microcontroller moves the car's engine forward. When the ultrasonic sensor detects an obstacle, the microcontroller turns off the mower's engine to prevent damage to objects/people/animals. If the direction does not change, the microcontroller turns the vehicle until it is away from the object and then pushes the lawnmower forward again. If the plant needs it, it will be watered according to the user's actions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
