Indri: Remote Controlled Robot for Sensing Hazardous Gases in Mines

Abstract

Abstract: "Indri" is a remote-controlled robot developed to improve safety in mining operations by detecting hazardous gases that pose risks to human health and safety. Using sensitive gas sensors, Indri identifies the presence of harmful gases like methane and carbon monoxide within mines environment. Operated remotely, the robot allows for real-time monitoring from a safe distance, reducing the need for human exposure to potentially dangerous conditions. Indri’s compact design enables it to navigate confined spaces, while its communication system transmits live data to a control interface, alerting users when gas levels exceed safe limits. By providing early warnings, Indri offers a proactive solution to enhance mine safety, making it a valuable tool for environmental monitoring and risk management
