Fabrication of wireless remote controlled electric lawn mower

Abstract

Pollution is considered as an important problem in the present world. Usage of Gas Lawn-mowers creates Noise and Smoke pollution which is harmful to the environment. So the replacement of Gas mowers with the Electric lawn mowers which runs by Electric motors will be the better solution. The design objective is to build an electric lawn mower which is controlled by using a micro-controller called NodeMCU. The micro-controller is connected wirelessly to the mobile phone through Wi-Fi. The use of IoT (Internet of Things) in this lawn mower plays a major role. The whole model is controlled with the mobile application. We use a total of three controls in the application which is used to control the movements of the geared motors. Two of these controls are used for the motion of the lawn mower, and the third controls the cutting motor. The speed of all these motion motors can be controlled since analog outputs are obtained from the NodeMCU. Here, human effort is less. Compared to the gas mower, the electric mower has a less pollution rate.
