      abstract = {The oil skimmer robot is an innovative solution designed to address the challenges of oil spill cleanup and water contamination. It leverages modern technology, including the ESP32 microcontroller, Bluetooth HC-05 module, DC motors, pumps, water level sensors, and ultrasonic sensors, to autonomously remove oil from water surfaces. The robot is controlled via an Android-based application, enabling remote operation and real-time monitoring. Its primary functions include oil skimming, water pumping, obstacle detection, and oil-water separation. This system aims to enhance environmental remediation efforts, reduce manual labor, and improve the efficiency of oil spill cleanup operations.},
