Design and implementation of amphibious smart rescue robot

Abstract

Now-a-days robots make all tasks easier. Research is going on for developing robots for rescue and survey purposes. This paper presents a new type of rescue robot that can run on any rough surface including staircase. The robot also can float on the water and dive under the water. A new communication technology is used here which make it a unique rescue robot based on internet of things (IoT). So it can be easily controlled from anywhere at any time simply using computer or smartphone. Various sensors installed in this robot enable it to sense the environment. So, this amphibious robotic vehicle can be effectively used in rescue, survey at any hostile region and also in defense and research fields. Its flexible structure provide it to be modified and updated for expanding the fields of application.
