This paper proposes an automatic mopping assistant robot, it has functions of auto-following, providing clean water, storing up sewage and washing mops. Firstly, to get the goal of auto-following, the robot has 1 ultrasonic module and 2 infrared modulesthat are connected with 1 Arduino motor driver that on 1 Arduino UNO board, the former for distance, the latter for direction, they cooperate to give robot ability of following people and keeping a safe distance fromusers. Secondly, interms of the mechanical structure, the robot is designed with 3 water sinksthat areinterconnected, which can provide water for cleaning mops at any time;finally, There is a cross-shaped brush on bottomof the cleaning sink, so when anelectric mop is put on it and turned on,the mop will be cleaned. The experimental results show that the robot achieves the expected function and runs well.
