Robotic Suitcase

Published on 19 May 2022. Written by Dhilan Mandaliya

A fully autonomous suitcase can go anywhere with you while travelling or any other situation or want to carry stuff with you. There are more than 2 Billion people who travel periodically in their day to day life, this project can reduce the effort of travelers.

It doesn't need any manual inputs and can move vertically or horizontally. It has an innovative movement system which can turn with your gestures or can just follow you wherever you are going by using wheels and you can also charge your electronic devices for 4 hours.

Project Description:

For making the following suitcase you need some the following components mentioned below.

Bluetooth module: HC-05 module is an easy to use Bluetooth SPP (Serial Port Protocol) module,designed for transparent wireless serial connection setup. The HC-05 Bluetooth Module can be used in a Master or Slave configuration, making it a great solution for wireless communication.
Rechargeable Battery: A rechargeable battery, storage battery, secondary cell, or accumulator is a type of electrical battery which can be charged, discharged into a load, and recharged many times, as opposed to a disposable or primary battery, which is supplied fully charged and discarded after use. It is composed of one or more electrochemical cells.
Diode Bridge: A diode bridge is an arrangement of four (or more) diodes in a bridge circuit configuration that provides the same polarity of output for either polarity of input. When used in its most common application, for conversion of an alternating-current (AC) input into a direct-current (DC) output, it is known as a bridge rectifier.
Multi meter: A multimeter, also known as a VOM (volt-ohm-millimeter), is an electronic measuring instrument that combines several measurement functions in one unit. A typical multimeter can measure voltage, current, and resistance. Analog Multimeters use a microammeter with a moving pointer to display readings.
GPS Module : To configure a GPS receiver, knowing the type of chipset your GPS is very important. The GPS chipset contains a powerful processor that is responsible for the user interface, all of the calculations, as well as analog circuitry for the antenna.
DC motors: This DC or direct current motor works on the principal, when a current carrying conductor is placed in a magnetic field, it experiences a torque and has a tendency to move. This is known as motoring action. If the direction of current in the wire is reversed, the direction of rotation also reverses.
USB : USB, short for Universal Serial Bus, is an industry standard that was developed to define cables, connectors and protocols for connection, communication, and power supply between personal computers and their peripheral devices.

Final Step:

Now you are ready to connect any portable devices to your smart power suitcase which is ready to follow the traveler even you are add weight sensor and GPS to connect to your smartphone or smartwatch.
