SOLAR OPERATED LINE FOLLOWING ROBOT.

ABSTRACT-
IN THIS FAST GROWING TECHNOLOGY THERE IS A GREAT DEMAND FOR FUEL TO
RUN DAY TO DAY APPLIANCES,VEHICLE ETC.,WITHOUT FUEL NONE OF THE
APPLIANCES ARE GOING TO WORK.TODAY,THERE IS A GREAT DEMAND TO FIND
ALTERNATE SOURCES OF ENERGY WHERE THE COST OF FUEL CAN BE
COMPENSATED.SOLAR ENERGY HAS INCREASED IT'S IN COMING YEARS AS ONE OF
THE BEST AVAILABLE RENEWABLE SOURCES OF ENERGY.WE HAVE COME UP WITH
THE "SOLAR OPERATED LINE FOLLOWING ROBOT" WHICH USES SOLAR AS A
SOURCE OF ENERGY TO RUN THE ROBOT AND APART FROM THAT THE PHOTO IR
TRANSMITTER AND RECIEVER HELP THE ROBOT TO FOLLOW A TRACK ABOUT
30MM,SO THAT IT STARTS AND STOPS AT THAT PARTICULAR TRACK.THE STEPS BY
WHICH SOLAR ENERGY IS CONVERTED TO ELECTRICAL ENERGY IS BELOW,
SOLAR ENERGY - SOLAR PANEL-CAPACITOR(10,400 MICROFARD/10 VOLT)--LINE
FOLLOWING CICUIT-MOTORS.
SOLAR ENERGY IS TAKEN BY THE PANEL @3VOLT/450MA AND IS SENT TO THE LINE
FOLLOWING CICUIT THROUGH THE CAPACITOR WHICH INDUCES A POSITIVE
VOLTAGE TO THE PHOTO RECIEVER AND THEN TO THE DRIVER TRANSISTOR BC547
AND TIP122 WHICH DRIVE THE MOTORS.WHEN THE LINE TRACK FINISHES THE
PHOTO RECIEVER INDUCES A NEGATIVE VOLTAGE TO THE DRIVER TRANSISTOR
WHICH STOP THE MOTOR.THIS PROTOTYPE ROBOT FINDS IT'S APPLICATION TO LOT
OF AREAS WHETHER HOME OR COMMERCIAL.FOR EXAMPLE LINE FOLLOWING
ROBOT CAN BE USED IN INDUSTRIES TO LOAD AND UNLOAD MATERIAL,ETC.,
