Keluthi Roomba - A Robotic Hand for Cleaning Sewage

Abstract

The manual scavengers are highly exposed to poisonous gases such as methane, hydrogen disulphide during the process of sewage cleaning. As a result they are subjected to health related issues such as bronchitis, skin cancer, respiratory problems the worst being loss of life. To automate the process of manual scavenging, this project proposes a Robotic hand which is controlled by a Mobile application. This system automatically clears the blockages in the underground water flow. This system is user-friendly and can be used for cleaning the sewage along roads and the underground sewage.
