Autonomous Fire Detecting and Extinguishing Robot

Abstract

This paper examines and leverages the potential of automation in hazardous but important occupation as firefighting. Robots are designed to find the location of fire, before it goes out of control. It could be used to work with fire fighters to reduce the risk of injury to victims. This paper presents the Fire Fighting Robot. The development of robot is divided into three elements which is the hardware, electronic, and programming. The robot has two DC motors for driving system and castor wheel for giving direction. A 12 Volt DC pump for suction and spraying of water. Servo Motor (SG90) for axial spraying of water.(0 degrees to 60 degrees)Various sensors are also interfaced with Arduino Uno Board. For the programming part, Arduino IDE language was used to determine the robot movement from the sensors input.
