Autonomous Board Erasing Robot

Abstract

The goal of this project is to create a robot that is capable to climb the whiteboard and clean it with just flipping a single switch. Arduino UNO R3 is the main processor that controls the robot behaviour. The robot can climb the magnetic whiteboard with the help of few neodynium magnets. With just flipping a single switch on the robot, the robot will reposition itself to top left corner of the board and will continue move around the board in zig-zag left to right pathway from top left until bottom of the board. The objectives of this project is to make especially lectures and teachers or whoever that use whiteboard mostly. Since time is gold, the robot will make sure that the time is not wasted when a person trying to clean the board manually by hand.
