CHAPTER-5

CONCLUSION AND FUTURE SCOPE

5.1 CONCLUSION:

Solar powered vacuum cleaner project has provided us an excellent

opportunity and experience, to use our limited knowledge. We gained a lot of
practical knowledge regarding, planning, purchasing, computing and
machining while doing this project work. We feel that the project work is a
good solution to bridge the gates between institution and industries. The solar
vacuum cleaner will be working with satisfactory conditions. We can
understand the difficulties in maintaining the quality. We have done to our
ability and skill making maximum use of available facilities. In conclusion
remarks of our project work, let us add a few more lines about our impression
project work. Automation is a technology concerned with his application of
mechanical, electronic and computer-based systems to operate and control
production. This project may be developed with the full utilization machines,
and materials and money. Also, we have followed thoroughly the study of time
motion and made our project economical and efficient with the available
resources. This system was designed successfully and tested. It works
satisfactorily. We hope that this will be done among the most versatile and
interchangeable one even in future.
5.2 FUTURE SCOPE:

It can be more effective by using lithium ion battery for more life because
over cost may increase double than the initial budget In today’s world people
looking for more innovative without the manual work, were automation plays
an important role to adapt in today’s life, using controller board and embedded
C programming can be implemented in this system, Solar capacity can be
increased for max efficiency This system can be manufactured using plastic
for lesser weight, atmospheric dust and dust deposition on solar PV both
reduce efficiency of solar panel. Experimentally it is seen that efficiency of
the solar panel decreases by 30-40% for indoor set up with constant
illumination whereas there is loss of 4-5% for outdoor set up with natural
lightening condition.

The future work of the robot may include:

 Image/video captured of a objects can be fed to the controller so that the

robot can clean the entire house according to the input fed.
 The cleaning mechanism on the robot can be replaced by a handlike
structure so that it can lift things from one place to another.
 Voice controlled locomotion of robot instead of remote control.
 Automatic charging.
