Abstract

Recently, Multisensor Fire Detection System (MSFDS) is one of the important research issues. Here, a fire fighter robot is fabricated providing extinguishment platform. The base of the robot is made of the wood of `Rashed tree', locally known as `Kerosene wood'. There is about 1 liter water reserving capacity. An arduino based simple algorithm is used for detection of fire and measurement of distance from fire source while the robot is on its way to extinguish fire. When the fire is detected and the robot is at a distance near to fire, a centrifugal pump is used to throw water for extinguishment purpose. A water spreader is used for effective extinguishing. It is seen that velocity of water is greatly…
