ABSTRACT
Social distancing is of key importance during the current pandemic. It helps limit the spread of COVID by observing distance between disease spreading individuals. Now it is not possible to station a person 24x7 at each queue to monitor social distancing violations. Banks, Public Offices, Malls, Schools, Theatre, etc.., usually see long queues for hours every day. To ensure social distancing in queues we hereby design a social distancing monitoring robot. The robot consists of a four wheel design system used to drive the robotic vehicle. It makes use of a line following principle to constantly move along with the queue and monitor for social distancing violations. The robot use IR sensor to travel along with the queue to and front in order to detect violations. The robot is now equipped with the obstacle detecting ultrasonic sensor in order to detect obstacles in the vehicle path. The robotic vehicle uses other ultrasonic sensor for detecting distance between two individuals in a queue. It any two individuals are found having less than three feet distance between them, the robot instantly sounds a buzzer and alert to inform about the violation, also it sends alerts of these violations along with a camera picture using WiFi over IoT to inform the higher authorities or head office to update them about violations with proof so instant disciplinary action can be taken. Thus this work allows for automatic maintaining social distancing in queues help to prevent the spread of the Corona virus
