An automated lawn mower is a machine designed to cut grass without requiring human guidance or

control. With the continuous advancements in technology, automation has become integral to

nearly every aspect of modern life. From household appliances to industrial machinery, automation

has transformed the way we interact with our environments, reducing manual labour and

improving overall efficiency. The emergence of automated lawn mowers follows this trend,

Efficient ventilation and air conditioning (VAC) systems are crucial for maintaining indoor air

quality and thermal comfort. This study evaluates the performance and optimization of the VAC

system at Crown Height Pavilion Event Center, Benin City. Key parameters such as airflow rate,

cooling load, temperature variation, humidity levels, power consumption, energy efficiency, and the

coefficient of performance (COP) were analyzed to determine system efficiency. Field

measurements revealed an airflow rate of 119.1 CMM, below the ASHRAE-recommended 127.35
