Solar Powered Explorer Robotic System Using GSM Technology

In this paper, a solar powered wireless controlled robot is designed using microcontroller and GSM technology. The direction of the robot has been controlled remotely using dual tone multiple frequency (DTMF) decoder and GSM network system. The real-time video has been streamed to realize the physical aspects of the surroundings. Each DTMF tone from the user end is processed by the decoder to generate a unique binary code to the microcontroller, which operates the robot in any direction. Solar panel, PIR (Pyroelectric Infrared Sensor) sensor and LDR are used to detect any life even at low light condition to capture video providing uninterrupted power supply. These features incorporated in the robot can help to explore information from any remote and hazardous place.
