Application of Robotics for a Social Cause in India
Abstract: India's waste management debacle has resulted in clogged landfills, pollution and severe health hazards, worsened by inefficient and hazardous manual waste collection. Despite government efforts, sanitation workers continue to face dangerous working conditions, necessitating a need for innovative solutions. This paper discusses the creation of a remote-controlled robot designed to clean roadside gutters and sewers, minimizing risk of infection for manual workers by minimizing exposure to harmful waste while improving efficiency. By integrating robotics into sanitation efforts, this system improves public health, environmental protection and the overall waste management. With a scalable and cost-effective design, it paves the way for future development in automated waste disposal across India.
Keywords: Robot, Gutter cleaning, social cause
