AUTOMATIC FIRE EXTINGUISHING ROBOT

ABSTRACT
The proposed fire extinguishing robot works in Automatic mode. The operation of robot
is monitored and controlled by Raspberry Pi. A fire sensors are attached to the left, right and
back of the robot, as the fire is sensed in the particular part it will automatically turn that side and
will pump the water in the up and down motion the same way for the other sides also and for the
front side if the fire is their it will automatically go back and pump the water. In automated
mode, robot will detect the fire and move to the fire location and water will be pumped to
extinguish the fire. Also IOT technology is used to control the robot from the web page and
camera will be used to send the images of the particular location to the webpage to know the
status of that area. It will be helped in order to reduce the human power and also make the work
totally automatic.

INTRODUCTION

Fire accidents is defined as an undesirable event which emits heat, smoke or flame. Fire
accident is a major form of accident and can cause a huge number of causalities because of the
danger and risk involved in rescuing victims out of the fire. When firefighting units engage in
such situations there is a high possibility to loss the life of fire personnel’s. In everyday life, it is
not feasible to always rely on human patrol for detecting and extinguishing fire at a fire accident
scene. If an automated system is made to patrol the perimeter for fire accidents, then we can have
an early warning system. This will be very effective in a fire accident in industries and
residential areas where the fire possibilities are high. In order to achieve this, we must come up
with an idea which can detect a flame, locate it and extinguish the fire immediately before it
poses a threat to anything around it. For risky situations, it would be idealistic to send a
firefighting robot that could quickly and efficiently find the fire and suppress it. Effective
monitoring, high speed recognition, and extinguishing of fire are problems to be dealt with
immediately. To reduce the risk of losing life in such situations, firefighting robots can be used.
The automatic robot is designed to avoid further spreading of the fire that could lead to possible
human causalities or damage to property. Firefighting robot will help the fire fighters to do their
job effectively.
EXISTING SYSTEM

Manually operated, to operate manually a Bluetooth module is used. System is connected

to smart phones by using a Bluetooth module. The Bluetooth device can be configured to receive
corresponding serial data for controlling the robot which is transmitted from the smart phone.
The movement and pumping action of the robot can be controlled with the help of the configured
smart phone.
PROPOSED SYSTEM
Automated mode, the robot is completely automated to search for the presence of
possible flames and obstacles in the vicinity. The robot moves around and search for the signs of
flame. The robot will search for flames using the three flame sensors placed in front of the robot.

CONCLUSION

The Webcam Robot Can Be Used In Place Of Human Reducing The Risk Of Life Of Fire
Fighters. We can use them in Our Homes, Labs , Offices, Industries, They Provide Use Greater
Effiency to Detect the Flame and it can be Extinguish before it become Uncontrollable and Treat
to Life .hence This Robot can Play a Crucial Rule
