    Future Developments and Improvements

    1. Design a microcontroller board so that we can reduce using the jumper wires and all the messiness on the electronic side.
    2. Need to replace the power supply with 12V rechargeable battery so that it can be charged and used again.
    3. Program the pathway of the vacuum to go all around the room without leaving any area untouched.
    4. Make a better design of the vacuum so that it is small and easily portable
