Human following smart

trolley
Award (graduate expo 3-prize)
 Abstract
• In this project we tried to accomplish an semi-
automatic or smart trolley system which requires a
minute manual work but can carry any amount of
weight based on the battery backup , motor’s torque
and speed. Smart Trolley system works with help of
Arduino and other sensors which are used to identify
the presence of a user. Arduino is the main
programmable part and draw wire sensor is the main
sensor that would detect the user’s position with
respect to trolley. Remaining sensors like ultrasonic and
pir are used to detect the user’s position without any
contact between the user and the trolley.
Objectives
 Objective-1:
• To design an economically feasible and accurate draw wire
sensor which can measure the amount of wire that is pulled
from it.
 Objective-2:
• To design a system that would detect the presence of angular
displacement between the trolley’s y-axis and the user’s y-axis
by taking the robot’s y-axis as reference.
 Objective-3:
• To design a custom-made motor driving circuit using relays.
 Objective-4:
• To make use of draw-wire sensor and angular displacement
presence detecting system and custom-made motor driving
circuit using relay module in efficiently finding the users
actual position with respect to trolley in semi-automatic
manner
 Objective-5: add-on
• To make use of ultrasonic and PIR sensor in efficiently finding
the users actual position with respect to trolley in an
automatic manner.
