Abstract This innovation is designed to help in the movement of large or heavy objects, and when something needs to be moved hands-free. Oftentimes it is problematic to transport objects that are heavy or have a large size, especially for elderly people, or when travelling with multiple pieces of luggage. By creating this system, it can be shown that robotics is practical in everyday life.
