In modern technology, the demand for LifePO4 batteries is increasing in the implementation of autonomous robots. However, the charging station has been found out to not contain the smart charging for the robot. The normal charging station would only continue charging until the maximum capacity of the battery. This will cause the lifetime of the battery to be reduced in the long-term usage and cause the number of replacement batteries to increase. The system that is implemented includes the smart monitoring system for the battery charging. The system would allow the user to monitor and control the mode of charging during different situations. The EKF included in the system allows the system to calculate the real-time SOC for the battery so that the battery won’t be overcharged or overdischarged during the charging period, hence increasing the overall usage for the battery. The system will record all the values of the current and voltage during the charging process for future investigation. Automatic changing to mode on CC and CV is also implemented in the system to make sure the battery is charging under the safest condition. A docking system by the pogo connector is included in the system to reduce the manual plug-in and plug-out from the user during the charging process. A physical dashboard and a web dashboard are implemented in the system for the user to monitor the real-life data of the charging
