WEB CONTROLLED FIRE EXTINGUISHING ROBOT

摘要

Nowadays the amount of effort put forth by the officials of the fire department manually can be eased. They can perform safer operations with the help of a mobile robot. In this paper, a Web Controlled Fire Extinguishing Robot is proposed taking into account the difficulties faced by the fire fighters to reduce the level of impact caused by a small flame which would have lead to a disastrous situation. A mobile mechanical device is used to extinguish fire at the desired location. The robot consists of a Pi camera mounted at the front interfaced to the Raspberry Pi. By using this application, commands are sent to the robot through a Wi-Fi module. The robot moves in all possible directions by using the buttons present on the web console interface. A water motor pump is used to extinguish the fire at the site by careful observation done by the Pi camera. The video streaming done by the robot enables the fire fighter to remotely operate from a distance at the time of emergencies. The high risk involved undertaking of fire fighters can now be accomplished safely and effectively without consuming any additional time.
