About this project
Fully autonomous floating waste collection robot detects waste using yolo and robot automatically navigate towards the waste and collect it using a conveyor belt.
The object detection using yolo is not precise it isnt getting fully captured all the time using our webcam feed.so we have to look into the object detection. The motor controlling works in such a way that if the detected waste is in the left it moves left with a delay and checks again for the detected waste if it's in the center
. it uses a raspberry pi 400 for processing and has a basic webcam .the feed is getting lag i dont knw it is beause of the camera or the raspberry pi. We have made a rc car model of the project and it should collect the waste using conveyor belt. And we need the full project before 26th.
