Summary:Grass cutter is a physical work device used to cut the grass with the help of renewable energy instead of electricity. The renewable energy is considered as solar because it is used in lawn movers which can be directly kept under the sunlight. First, a hollow square bar is used to build the body, and then a caster wheel is placed under the square bar's body. Then an incline fiber plate is placed on a body, and a solar panel is placed on the incline fiber plate. Solar panels transfer the energy and converted into electrical energy, which is then converted back into mechanical energy. This electrical energy is transferred to the electric motor which is connected in the shaft. A blade with a cutting edge is linked to the shaft of the electric motor and cuts the grass. The hardware of the solar grass cutter is done and the programing was done in Arduino Simulink uno and results were simulatedin proteus software.
