In today’s world, the COVID-19 pandemic has affected many lives and forced the people to take safety precautions like never before. Therefore, designing an environmentally friendly theatre minimizing germ propagation using filtration mechanisms is a valuable project, as it would help struggling businesses, and give people a chance to enjoy a day outside, safely. With safety being the highest priority, the incorporation filtration systems and contactless food delivery networks is essential while providing a fun and lasting memory for the visiting audience. However, to meet the previously listed goals, solutions to major obstacles are necessary. This includes designing a robot with consistent movements while simultaneously avoiding its surrounding obstacles, building an energy environment friendly cooling system, and creating a filtration mechanism to filter the COVID-19 particles. With these overall designs incorporated into the traditional movie theatre, the team presents the “COVID-less Movie Theatre”.
