Abstract: The beach cleaning machine is a vehicle that can be used to pick up rags from the shores thus keeping the beaches clean. A great number of people visit beaches very often for relaxation and recreation. People throw plastics quite often on shores without knowing the consequences. This results in environmental pollution which affects the marine environment and increases the risks of diseases. In order to overcome this we have designed and fabricated a beach cleaning machine that will clean the beaches by picking up rags with minimal human effort. Here, we have incorporated an Arduino board and developed an app through which we will be able to control the operations of the machine within a range of 10 meter through Bluetooth. A 3-D model of the design has been developed and analysis has been performed. The machine developed is a cost efficient vehicle with high efficiency and also user friendly.
