Detailed Project Description

DEDICATION


 


This project or work is dedicated to disabled and busy persons in urban society and especially to the environment.




  


INTRODUCTION


 


As the times change we become more modern. We have become busy with different works; pollutions are also increasing in our environment. We know the burning of fossil fuels is one of the major ways that produces CO2 which is a very harmful Greenhouse gas. And vehicles produce nearly 20% of CO2 of all. We use vehicles to get from one place to another, from medicine to food. Everyone needs fuels and these are very limited in our nature. So, they should be used less. Although we are to go ahead with technological progress we must accept pollution as an inevitable hazard. But pollution can be reduced. So, to reduce environmental pollution and save people's time we have come up with a project, a drone. This will save the time of people and if the person is so busy or having some disabilities, where the disaster took place and can’t go to market for buying the daily requirements too. This project is there to help them by delivering their required things. This drone will help the people getting medicines where the disaster took place. And even today delivery boys come to deliver the ordered things… but how much time does it take to reach to the receiver? We can say near about 2 hours or even more, sometimes. So here our project will play an important role. 


There are many colonies in an urban area. So for every colony, we will appoint 2 or 3 drones. After a person orders something. That will be delivered by the drone, which will take a maximum to maximum of half an hour. 




  


·   Our drone will be waterproof. The frame of our drone will be made in a way so that a single drop of water can’t go inside our drone. We are making it Waterproof because at the time of product lifting if it comes under to water to escape from it. The product which we will use all are waterproof like are:-


1. Gimbal camera


2. Solar panel


3. Sensors


4. GPS module


To make it waterproof we are using filament to protect it from all sides.


 


·   We will use solar power in our drone. This will make the drone run throughout the day in this case battery's energy is also saved which is an eco-friendly idea. To make a solar power drone we are using a 12V solar panel.


 


·   We are using GPS for our drone to find its location where the drone is for the time being. If case connection gets lost receiver and transmitter or the Camera suddenly stops working that time it will help us reach the destination or to find the drone where it is fallen. To make this we are using GPS Module “Ublox NEO - 8M”


·   The main thing is that we are making the drone in the shape of a hex copter as we know our drone is used for delivery purposes it needs to take heavyweight. So, we are using 6 motors. Our drone will be able to carry more than 3 kg. 


 


·   Next come obstacle avoider which will help the drone in avoiding obstacles. We use Sensor and Arduino to do it. It will avoid all types of obstacles and will go further.  


 


Advantages of this Project


1. Makes a person’s life easier.


2. Easy to get delivery access.


3. Produces very little pollution.

Space Agency Data

The project is not copied from anywhere.

Hackathon Journey

So that we can help the disabled and busy persons and even pollution can be decreased.
