WiFireBot: Smart ESP32 based surveillance car with temperature and fire detectio

Abstract

Fire incidents can have severe consequences, including loss of life, property damage, and disability. Industries like nuclear power plants, refineries, and chemical factories are susceptible to major fires. To address this, a fire control robot has been developed, reducing the need for human intervention. Fire accidents are common in daily life, posing challenges for firefighters. In such cases, firefighting robots play a vital role. Simultaneously, surveillance robots have become pivotal in security, industrial monitoring, and home automation. A low-cost, efficient surveillance robot using ESP32-CAM has been created for indoor and outdoor use. These robots offer remote monitoring through the ESP32 CAM module, providing Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity for remote control and data collection. They integrate seamlessly, capturing high-quality imagery and videos, which are wirelessly transmitted for analysis. The ESP32 CAM module offers several advantages, including high-quality data capture, remote control, and wireless data transmission, making it suitable for various applications such as security and monitoring. Combining fire control with surveillance capabilities ensures safety and provides valuable insights. This paper presents a combined design for a fire detection and suppression robot with surveillance capabilities. The robot uses flame and temperature sensors to detect fires and employs various methods to extinguish them. It also features an ESP-32 camera for real-time fire monitoring and can be controlled remotely via a smartphone or tablet.
