Webcam-Guided Rover Control for Medical Waste Transport

This research study aims to address the health risks posed by improper medical waste management by implementing an innovative solution: a web cam-guided rover control for medical waste transport. It is a robot that can be programmed to communicate with MATLAB over Wi-Fi to carry out different tasks. The rover autonomously navigates along the predefined paths, utilizing image processing to identify and collect medical waste. This approach eliminates the need of human intervention, thus reducing the risk of infections associated with manual waste handling. The rover hardware components incorporates Arduino Nano 33 IoT, Arduino Nano Motor Carrier, DC motor with encoder, Servo motor, Fork lifting. Wheels, Web cam and Ultrasonic Sensor.
