Now a days there are several possibilities of fire in any building. For instance, in hotels, shopping malls and hospitals, electric leakage may cause immense fire and harm. In the worst of sceneries, fire cause heavy loss to human lives. Robotics is the best possible way to guard human lives, wealth and surroundings. Hence a fire extinguisher robot made to overcome these problems. An automatic fire extinguisher robot is a hardware based model used for extinguishing the fire automatically during fire accidents. This robot will move in a direction with respect to the fire intensity with the help of ZIGBEE communication. The robot shield is coated with some special material that is capable of withstanding very high temperature. During fire accidents this robot has to follow the black strips on a white floor and can extinguish the fire on the fired place. It takes long time for human to take action on extinguishing the fire. Even if we put fire alarms, it takes long time for the fire brigade to reach the location. By that time it can cause huge loss of properties. This robot does not require any human presence. It can start extinguishing the fire immediately so that the fire does not spread a lot and can be controlled easily. As soon as the fire starts, human fire brigade is also informed to be on the safe side. The robot finds its applications in rescue operations during the fire accidents where possibilities for service men to enter the fire prone area is very less and also during wars to perform rescue functions. The most added advantage of this robot is that it turns on automatically as it detects the fire around its surroundings by using thermocouple. The temperature sensors provide a backup to the thermocouple, if needed in vast circumstances. |
