Abstract
Sustainable power source is a vitality that is gathered from inexhaustible assets, which are normally recharged on a human timescale, for example, daylight, wind, rain, tides, waves, and geothermal warmth. This wellspring of vitality has turned out to be eco-accommodating when contrasted with its partners i.e. coal and atomic vitality. Solar panels are designed to absorb the energy coming from the sun and to convert it into electricity for further use. With the production of solar panels their maintenance and cleaning is a huge task. As the name suggests we are making an “Autonomous Robotic Cleaner for Solar Panels”. We have designed a robotic cleaner which is comparatively cheap and more efficient as compared to its counter parts. Our robotic cleaner is completely autonomous and it operates on the basis of a pre-defined algorithm. The algorithm can be modified by the user according to their requirement. It is portable, durable and user-friendly. It minimizes the human effort. Our autonomous robotic cleaner will follow the forward-backward algorithm for the process of cleaning. This working methodology is less time consuming and more efficient as compared to its counter parts. During our work on this project we came across different innovative ideas which we can implement in the future to make our robot more robust and efficient
