Abstract
The area of firefighting has always been one of the most dangerous one and there have been many losses of lives because of lack in advancement of technology. The methods currently applied in the field of firefighting are inadequate and inefficient and also they are relying heavily on humans who are prone to error. There has been always a threat to human firefighters lives during any explosions or any radioactive blasts where even extensive quality suits are of no use. There has been a recent trend that is to use robots instead of humans to handle fire incidents. This is because they can be used in situations that are very dangerous for any individual to involve themselves in. In our project, we develop a set of robots that is able to locate humans and extinguish fire in a given environment which is out of human reach. The robot navigates the effected area and avoids any obstacles that it faces in the process of its excursion. The infrared camera embedded robot will inspect intelligently inside the affected area so as to find the presence of human lives. The other robots will help in fire to get extinguished from a range where human reach is not possible. Because of this we can save the human lives inside the affected area without putting the lives of firefighters to a threat.
