摘      要：Arduino UNO-based Solar powered Grasscutter designed to cut healthy grass in places like parks, hotels, public places, etc., The Grasscutter is designed through IoT (Internet of Things) technology, which is controlled remotely through Blynk application supported with Bluetooth module. The proposed model consists of hardware components like Arduino UNO, Solar panel, DC motor, motor driver, rechargeable batteries and Bluetooth module. The designed model is programmed through Arduino IDE to control the operation of the Grasscutter. The control mechanism and movements such as Forward movement, Backward movement, Right movement, Left movement, On mechanism, Off mechanism and Stop function for the Grasscutter prototype. An ultrasonic sensor connected to the head of the model avoids the system from colliding with obstacles while in movement.
