Obstacle Avoidance Robot With CCTV
Obstacle Avoidance Robot With CCTV
This project operates with a battery-powered circuit an Arduino controls two 12V
DC motors via an L293D driver for movement. The HC-05 Bluetooth module
allows remote control through a mobile app. A 5V CCTV camera provides live
video surveillance accessible via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. A metal detection sensor
alerts the user with a buzzer if it detects metal objects or hazards.
Objectives
Obstacle Avoidance
To automatically detect obstacles with an ultrasonic sensor, stop the robot, and
navigate around them by rotating 90 degrees using a servo motor
Obstacle Detection
To detect metal objects or hazards in the robot's path using a metal detection
sensor and alert the user with a buzzer.
Stable Operation
To ensure stable operation of the robot through efficient power regulation and
motor control

Methodology
When the battery is turned on, it powers the circuit, with a 7805-voltage
regulator providing a stable 5V output for the Arduino and other components.
The Arduino initializes and runs its code, controlling two 12V DC motors through
an L293D motor driver to manage the robot's movement in various directions
(forward, backward, left, and right). Initially, the robot moves forward. If an
obstacle is detected by an ultrasonic sensor, the robot stops and rotates the
ultrasonic sensor 90 degrees to the left or right using a servo motor. It then
resumes moving forward in that direction where no detected obstacle, repeating
this process as needed. The 5V CCTV camera mounted on the robot provides live
video surveillance, accessible via HC- 05 Bluetooth for real-time monitoring.
Additionally, a metal detection sensor below the front wheels alerts the user with
a buzzer if metal objects or spikes are detected. This setup ensures smooth
operation with remote control, live monitoring, and obstacle detection. Future
enhancements could include IoT features like real-time smoke and alcohol
detection or location tracking.
