Abstract

This project introduces a smart automated animal dung collector designed to improve hygiene, reduce manual labor, and enhance waste management in cattle farms. The system integrates ultrasonic and infrared sensors with a microcontroller-based control unit (ESP32/Arduino) to detect dung, obstacles, and environmental changes in real time. Once dung is detected, the system autonomously navigates to the location using motor-driven wheels and activates a high-power vacuum suction mechanism to collect and store the waste in a sealed container. Additional sensors—including gas, moisture, and load sensors—enable monitoring of ammonia levels, dung wetness, and bin capacity for efficient and safe operation. The prototype provides portable, low-cost, and farmer-friendly automation, addressing challenges faced in rural dairy farms where manual cleaning is labor-intensive and unhygienic. By ensuring a cleaner shed environment, improving animal health, reducing labor dependency, and enabling reuse of dung for fertilizer or biogas, the proposed system contributes to more sustainable and productive farm management. The compact design, IoT-based monitoring capabilities, and real-time alert mechanisms make the solution suitable for widespread use in modern livestock farms
