In response to the pervasive issue of unclean streets in urban and underdeveloped cities and towns, our project aims to develop a garbage-cleaning robot that navigates sidewalks as well as identifies and picks up trash items.

Our design goals are to implement and integrate vision sensors for navigation, motor control for robot movement, and a garbage collecting mechanism.

What makes our project unique is its emphasis on creating a pedestrian-friendly environment and the commitment to designing a low-cost robot. We also strive to make a real impact on cleanliness and safety in urban and underdeveloped areas.
