FABRICATION OF WIND POWER VEHICLE
The main aim of the project is fabrication of wind power vehicle which works with the
help of energy generated using wind energy. Energy can be neither created nor be destroyed but it
can be transferred from one form to another form. Wind is a form of energy. This project work
mainly deals with the conversion of wind energy to electrical energy. This electrical energy in
turn used to move the vehicle (mechanical energy).
The setup of this project consists of a frictionless fan placed on the body of the vehicle.
The shape of the vehicle body is designed in such a way that as the wind passes the body the fan
placed on the body gets rotated. Some concepts of aerodynamics are used here in designing the
body of the vehicle. A dynamo is connected to this fan, as the fan gets rotated the dynamo
generates voltage. Here we are provided with two batteries, one is used to store the voltage
generated by dynamo while the other is used to rotate the motors. These batteries are switched
between each other as the battery, which is used to rotate wheels gets discharged. Thus no
external source of energy is required to rotate the motors.
The advent of new high-speed technology and the growing computer
Capacity provided realistic opportunity for new robot controls and realization of new
methods of control theory. This technical improvement together with the need for high
performance robots created faster, more accurate and more intelligent robots using new
robots control devices, new drives and advanced control algorithms. This project
describes a new economical solution of robot control systems. The presented robot
control system can be used for different sophisticated robot applications.
The main aim of this project is to detect control the robot using the wireless
remote. As it is a wireless Robot it can be easily mobilized and can be controlled.

In this project we use micro controller, which is programmed to control the input
and output modules interfaced to it. The controller makes use of a remote, which is used
to control the robot.
The project consists of micro controller based motherboard is present with the
Robot itself. It is interfaced with some DC motors for moving the robot, and a RF for
receiving the instructions from the remote.
This project utilizes two DC Motors respectively. The DC motor generates torque
directly from DC power supplied to the motor by using internal commutation, stationary
permanent magnets, and rotating electrical magnets. It works on the principle of Lorentz
force, which states that any current carrying conductor placed within an external
magnetic field experiences a torque or force known as Lorentz force. Advantages of a
brushed DC motor include low initial cost, high reliability, and simple control of motor
speed. Disadvantages are high maintenance and low life-span for high intensity uses.
Maintenance involves regularly replacing the brushes and springs which carry
the electric current, as well as cleaning or replacing the commutator. These components
are necessary for transferring electrical power from outside the motor to the spinning
wire windings of the rotor inside the motor.
The driver used for DC Motors is L293D. The Device is a monolithic
integrated high voltage, high current four channel driver designed to accept standard DTL
or TTL logic levels and drive inductive loads (such as relays solenoids, DC and stepping
motors) and switching power transistors. This project makes use of a micro controller,
which is programmed, with the help of embedded C instructions. This Microcontroller is
capable of communicating with input and output modules. The controller is interfaced
with dc motors, which are fixed to the Robot to control the direction of the Robot.
