The Envi-Rover is a LoRa-based, long-range, remotely operated robotic system designed to monitor environmental parameters and detect obstacles in hazardous or inaccessible areas. The rover is controlled using W, A, S, D keys for movement and X to stop. Data from the rover is continuously received at the controller, allowing for real-time monitoring and control remotely without any hastle.
It integrates ESP32 with various sensors (temperature, humidity, illumination, and gas detection) and a LoRa communication module to transmit data over long distances. Users can access the data via Blynk on mobile or PC.
🎥 Rover :
- The rover continuously collects data from sensors and transmits it via LoRa to the controller.
- Users can send movement commands (
W,A,S,D) to the rover, andXstops it. - Ultrasonic sensor with servo rotates automatically to detect obstacles and avoid collisions.
- Blynk integration allows users to view real-time data on mobile or PC dashboards.
- Data can be accessed anytime, enabling remote monitoring even in inaccessible locations.
- Remote Control: Move the rover using
W,A,S,Dkeys;Xto stop. - Real-Time Data Monitoring: Temperature, humidity, gas levels, and illumination are continuously monitored and transmitted.
- Long-Range Communication: LoRa module enables data transmission over large distances.
- Obstacle Detection: Ultrasonic sensor with servo rotation detects and avoids obstacles automatically.
- Blynk Integration: View live environmental data from anywhere using the Blynk dashboard.
- Deployment Ready: Suitable for agriculture, disaster zones, industrial environments, and scientific research.
Below is the system flow for data transmission and control between the Rover and Controller.
