Design and Development of Multi-Purpose Fire Extinguisher Robot

摘要

Fire disasters can cause loss of life, damage property and the environment. Primary task of fire-fighters is to handle fire incidents but while doing so they are at a higher risk especially when extinguishing fire in hazardous environments like nuclear power plants, gas stations, oil rigs. They are faced with other challenges like fires in narrow places where a human being cannot reach. With so many risks involved in fire fighting operations, technological advancements can be used to assist in fire fighting. Therefore, in this paper development of multi-purpose fire extinguishing robot is proposed which can assist in carrying out fire extinguishing operations as well as reconnaissance missions.
