Autonomous Vehicle for Fire detecting and Extinguishing

Abstract

— Our project presents an innovative solution for fire detection and extinguishing through an autonomous rover system. Leveraging fire sensors integrated with a node MCU, the system swiftly identifies fire outbreaks and transmits alerts to the rover via the ThingSpeak cloud platform. Upon receipt of the alert, the rover activates a buzzer for immediate local notification and dispatches alerts through a dedicated mobile application, ensuring rapid response from relevant personnel. Employing a line follower mechanism, the rover autonomously navigates towards the fire-affected area. Equipped with a water spraying system, the rover efficiently extinguishes flames, minimizing water wastage and enhancing firefighting effectiveness. This approach significantly reduces response time, enhancing safety across diverse environments. The system's ability to optimize resource utilization and automate firefighting procedures makes it adaptable to various settings, including industrial facilities, urban areas, and remote locations. Overall, our autonomous rover system represents a substantial advancement in firefighting technology, offering swift and efficient fire detection and extinguishing capabilities to mitigate fire hazards effectively.
