# Package Delivery Rover :rocket:

This project is a prototype of **Self Driving Car**. It's based on embedded systems, to meet the current requirement of _delivery applications_ & to overcome the

problems of industrial automation. 

Here are a few outcomes which are successfully implemented

- The rover design made it possible to run over uneven surfaces.

- Obstacle avoidance mechanism avoids obstacles of considerable size.

- GPS module and Google Maps Api helps to find the trajectory.

- Security Mechanism ensures the package delivery only to the client.

## Idea (Concept)

- This Project is intended to deliver goods. It uses a GPS sensor and Google

Maps services or user defined map to deliver from a source to any destination.

- It uses an ultrasonic

distance sensor to map the surrounding to avoid obstacles and find the best route. It has versatile Wheels to run on uneven surfaces with a Structure robust enough and

powered with Lead Acid batteries. 

- All this system runs through Rasberry Pi and Arduino

Hardware with encoder motors to change directions on course.

- It is apparently intended

right now for small premises to deliver but this range can be extended far away.

- This project

can be modified more to suit environment by adding various sensors.

- Finally when the valuables are delivered,the client is prompted for password which is messaged to him to unlock and get hold of his delivery.

- Delivery being

the prime and promising objective,our application of Rover is not limited to it and is

highly versatile.

## Software

- The code is individually tested for all seperate hardware modules.

- All the different Python snippets when combined would make the project work with _hardware setup_.

- Please find the connections of different module wired pins & Raspberry Pie/Arduino inside the code itself!
