INTRODUCTION
1.1 DESIGN AND FABRICATION OF SEMI-AUTOMATIC FIRE EXTINGUISHER
ROBOT
This advanced project Fire Fighter Robotic Vehicle with Night Vision Camera
allows a user to control a fire fighter robot equipped with water tank and gun remote
wirelessly for extinguishing fires. For this purposes the system uses an RF remote for
remote operation along with RF receiver based microcontroller circuit for operating the
robotic vehicle and water pump. The receiver circuit receives RF signals through RF based
remote transfer user commands.
The receiver circuit now decodes the data commands sent. It then forwards it to the
microcontroller. Now the microcontroller processes these instructions and then instructs
the vehicle motors to run the vehicle in desired directions. It also operates the water pump
motor and pump direction motor to spray water based on user’s command. This allows the
user to operate the robot and put off the fire by standing at a safe distance. This robot body
also has a wireless night vision enabled camera mounted over it. This night vision camera
helps to direct the robot body in which ever direction as needed.
This is because whatever area that will be captured by this wireless camera can be
viewed in PC for reference. The robot operates within 8 meter range of the remote.
Thus this system helps to extinguish fire from a safe distance with the help of the water
tank attached to the robot body.
CHAPTER 2
LITERATURE SURVEY
development in the field of robotics, human intrusions have become less and robots
are being widely used in order to overcome difficulties faced by firemen. This is one
of the reasons for which robots are used instead of humans to handle fire hazards.
Therefore, this paper presents the development of a firefighting robot that can
extinguish fire without the need for fire fighters to be exposed to unnecessary
danger. In this project, we are developing a robot which can also be used on
domestic levels for fire extinguishing operations.
From this paper explains the designing and construction of microcontroller
based wireless firefighting robot. The required experimental work has been carried
out successfully and the commands given to the robot through RF remote works
perfectly and the microcontroller carries out the necessary operation based on the
user command.

ROBOT” International Journal of Emerging Technology and Innovative
Engineering Volume 5, Issue 9, September 2019 ISSN: 2394 – 6598.
This paper first introduces the integrated system which is the heart of the
robot. Then the mobile platform and the actuation, they are combined together to
make the robot move. Special sensors are the most important parts. For AR-4, there
are sonar sensors, sharp IR sensors measuring the distance, flame sensor detecting
the fire, and bump sensors in case of an extreme situation.
From this, we successfully approached of modular design strategy was a good
solution in implementing the firefighting robot to help people at the critical
condition. The proposed robot can move in forward, backward, left, right and can
stop also. Robot detects temperature, smoke and flame at the site where the robot
exists. This robot is help full in those areas where natural calamity and bomb
explosions where occurred.

BEST EXIT PATH DURING FIRE HAZARD IN INDUSTRY ENVIRONMENT”
MIST Journal of Science and Technology|Volume 5|Issue 1|December 2017 ISSN
2224-2007.
Fire protection is the study where it teaches how to survive during fire hazards
and describes the safety measures during construction of the buildings to prevent
destructive fire. Ensuring building code and fire code, government can enforce some
basic safety measures during the construction of buildings. For smart building and
also for already constructed buildings, we need some automated systems to find out
the way of nearest exit for the victims, as well as, finding out the shortest path for the
fire fighters to reach the target point. In this paper, an efficient algorithm is proposed
where it provides immediate and dynamic indication of best possible exit path at the
time of fire accidents in industrial environment.
From this paper, we proposed an efficient algorithm which would work as a
guidance provider component during fire hazard. Implementation of this proposed
system can save people from death by alarming them in a smarter and quicker way.
Existing alarm system informs people of danger but our algorithm will also keep
them a little bit ahead of time as the efficient path to exit is shown.

PROBLEM STATEMENT
Taking reference from the National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB) statistics
for 2015, The Managing Trustee and President of Beyond Carlton, said five States —
Maharashtra, Uttar Pradesh, Gujarat, Karnataka and Madhya Pradesh — accounted for
over 60% of deaths due to fire. In Karnataka, 1,244 people had died in fires in 2015,
781 of them women. Nationally too, NCRB data for 2015 showed that 17,500 Indians
died in fire accidents in a single year. As many as 7,445 Indians died in their
residences.
“According to the FICCI- Pinkerton India Risk Survey 2017 that analyses the
most significant threats to business perception and risks for the country, fire ranks as
the fifth greatest risk among 12 risks”. Members of Beyond Carlton said there had been
changes since the horrific Carlton Towers tragedy on 23rd February 2010, especially
after a PIL (Public Interest Litigation) filed by Beyond Carlton in the Karnataka High
Court resulted in a government notification laid down stringent preventive measures in
high-rise buildings in the State, but they admitted that more needs to be done for safety
precautions from fire.
3.1 Lack of Uniform Fire Safety Legislation: According to Accidental Deaths &
Suicides in India report 2020, a total of 11,037 cases of fire accidents were reported in
the country during 2020. Despite that there is no uniform legislation regarding fire
safety in India.
3.2 Natural and Climatic Causes: Natural weather phenomena like lightning, extreme
heat with low humidity cause fires in urban areas.
buildings often contain large enclosed spaces or voids, even a small fire can become a
fire hazard due to the lack of smoke management and warning mechanism through
emergency lighting which will also lead to creating difficulties for firemen to do their
job.

A firefighter of age 31, died after portion of building collapses on him due to
lack of advancement in the technology of fire safety department. The incident took
place on 9th October 2021 and all three firefighters present at the spot were injured. He
was at the industrial area when he and his team members sustained burn injuries while
trying to control a fire in the Bhorgarh area.
He was at the industrial area when he and his team members sustained burn
injuries while trying to control a fire in the Bhorgarh area. The men got trapped after a
portion of the building collapsed on them.
He was injured while controlling a factory fire, succumbed due to injuries.
Police said the deceased was posted in the Outer district of Delhi Fire Services and had
completed his training in 2019.
Analyzing these incidents and harms to humanity, we intend to bring
improvements in the technology of firefighting systems through our project of the
prototype of a fire fighter robot. As technology in the fire service can improve fire
fighter safety and readiness.
Technology is the root of almost everything we do, whether in our personal or
professional lives. We will readily admit that some of the advances and uses of certain
technologies have befuddled us. However, for the most part, we believe firmly that
technology has improved what we do and how we perform, and has generally helped
improve the outcomes of our work.
Innovative technology has always been an important part of firefighting.
Technology in the fire service covers far more than computers and software. From
personal protective equipment to fire pumps to radio communication systems,
firefighting technology advances all work together to improve firefighter safety and
effectiveness.

OBJECTIVES OF THE PROJECT
• Robotic firefighting systems are designed with certain tasks in mind. These
include analyzing and locating fires, conducting search and rescue, monitoring
hazardous variables and the primary task of fire control and suppression.
• Fixed firefighting robotic systems, like automatic fire sprinklers and alarms, are
should be used in heavily populated and hazardous areas for rapidly
extinguishing any threat. These are usually simpler systems relying mostly on
IR sensors.
• Mobile robotic firefighting systems are another type, mostly in the form of
remote controlled vehicles affixed with fire suppression tools like water or
foam hoses. These are capable of travelling into areas unsafe for people through
an array of sensors, visual camera, IR and more technology that transmits
information for navigation to a remote operator.
• The goal of this competition is to advance the capabilities of robotic fire fighter
robots in particular, the application of fire fighter robots to the suppression of
warehouse fires. Sprinkler systems are effective and reliable.
• This robot will reduce the risk of injury for motivation behind this project is
that firefighter's death. Many firefighters are struggling to perform their duty
which causes many deaths while on a mission and the circumstances related to
each incident.
• Firefighters are our heroes and our sense of security in times of trouble. They
put themselves on dangerous situations to protect us. At present, the world is
moving toward the use of technologies software and hardware.
• This paper proposed a smart fire fighter robot system which designed to detect
the source of fire, extinguish it and increase the knowledge about fire behavior
from the firefighters and possible victims and decrease the monetary losses
which increase considerably as fire duration increases.
• It also makes use of liquid-tank and spray mechanism for extinguishing the fire.
The spraying nozzle is mounted on a servo motor to cover maximum area.
CHAPTER 5
TYPES OF FIRE EXTINGUISHABLE BY THE ROBOT
The 5 different classes of fires each have their own best approach to put them out
safely and effectively. A fire’s class can determine how quickly it burns, how dangerous it
is, and the best way to suppressor put it out through our robot.
Fig5.1: Flames
Understanding the 5 different classes of fires can help us determine the biggest fire
risks at our facility and prevent from it through our robotic technology. The potential
application of the multifunctional firefighting system has been defined as a group that
includes the chemical and oil industry, nuclear plants, military storage facilities, as well as
mine fields and dangerous substance transport.
As a lifeless robot, fire fighter robots can fully play their role in various dangerous
and complex environments such as high temperature, toxic, hypoxia, and dense smoke, and
greatly reduce the casualties of firefighters and as special equipment, fire-fighting robots
can be used repeatedly to exert their effectiveness while being carefully maintained.
