Abstract

Firefighting is an important as well as a dangerous occupation. A firefighter must be able to get to the fire quickly and safely so as to prevent further damage and reduces fatalities. Technology has bridged the gap between firefighting and machines allowing for a more efficient and effective method of firefighting. Robots can be used in many applications in industries, military and domestic applications. One of the major uses of Robots is an asset to human beings. Whether it is any kind of hazardous situations like a fire breaking out or a place full of landmines, Robots can easily work out a way out of these problems. So let us discuss a Firefighting Robot. There are many possibilities a fire can start in an industry or in any remote area. For example, in cotton mills, garments and fuel storages, electric leakages can lead to huge damage. Also in a worst-case scenario, causing heavy losses not only financially but also destroying areas surrounding it. Robotics is the emerging solution to protect human lives and their wealth and surroundings. The aim here is to design a FIREFIGHTING ROBOT using embedded system. A robot capable of fighting a simulated household fire will be designed and built. It must be able to autonomously navigate through a modelled floor plan while actively scanning for a flame.
