Working

This bot can be operated manually or autonomously. In manual mode all the commands are given via serial communication (Bluetooth in this case). Once autonomous mode is activated, the bot will divide the given length in to equal segments where each segment is equal to double the width of the plough. It will then plough the segment and stops and beep when any obstacle is encountered. This will continue until the entire area is ploughed.
