Detailed Description

The Mini Vacuum Cleaner project is a portable cleaning device that uses an Arduino-based embedded system to control a DC motor and fan assembly, providing suction for dust and debris collection.

The device incorporates an ultrasound sensor for obstacle detection, allowing the vacuum to adjust its path and avoid collisions. The compact chassis is powered by a rechargeable battery, making the system mobile and energy-efficient. The Arduino microcontroller manages motor speed and sensor input to ensure smooth operation.

This project demonstrates practical skills in hardware integration, sensor interfacing, embedded system programming, and mechanical assembly. It highlights the ability to build functional, automated prototypes using cost-effective components.
