War Field Spying Robot Using Wireless Camera:

Introduction:
Nowadays as there are technological advancements these advancements are used by the military forces for
reducing the risk of their casualties and to defeat their enemies. With the development of sophisticated
technology, it mostly relies on the high tech weapons or machinery being used. Robotics is one of the hot
fields of modern age in which the nations are concentrating upon for military purposes in the state of war
and peace. They have been in use for some time for demining and rescue operations but now they are
propelled by using them for combat and spy missions. Modern military forces are using different kinds of
robots for different applications ranging from mine detection to rescue operations. In future, they will be
used for reconnaissance and surveillance, logistics and support, communications infrastructure, forward-
deployed offensive operations, and as tactical decoys to conceal maneuver by manned assets. In order to
make robots efficient for the unpredicted cluttered environment of the battlefield, research on different
aspects of robots are under examination in laboratories to be able to do its job autonomously, as efficiently
as a human operated machine can do. Latest technologies, software and hardware are being investigated to
have advanced and intelligent robots for different operations on the war field. This paper presents robotic
technologies being used in war spying. These robots are under examination for autonomous, co-operative
and controlled environment. Our major focus is on the uses of robots in war, peace and as well as their
impact on society. Keywords: wireless, robot, RF technology, transmission, reception, war, spy,
surveillance.

1. Abstract:
The aim of developing a high-tech technology serves the purpose of achieving high speed technology,
advanced capacity to control the robots and to device new methods of control theory. The realization of
above standards some technical improvement along with the need of high performance robot is required to
create a faster, reliable, accurate and more intelligent robot which can be devised by advanced control
algorithm, robot control devices and new drivers. The design of our project encourages developing a robotic
vehicle based on RF technology for the remote operation connected with the wireless camera mounted on
the robot for monitoring purpose. The transmitting module consist of the push buttons that send the
commands to the receiving module for controlling the movement of robot either to right, left, forward,
downward. In the receiving module of the robot two motors are interfaced with the decoder HT12D to
control its movement via L293D motor driver IC. The remote control (RF transmitter) has a range of 50m to
200m that transmits the signals to the RF receiver. The receiver collects and decodes the received signals
before feeding it to the microcontroller to drive the DC motors via motor drivers.

Metal Detector:
A metal detector is an instrument that detects the nearby presence of metal.[1][2][3] Metal detectors are useful
for finding metal objects on the surface, underground, and under water.[4][5] A metal detector consists of a
control box, an adjustable shaft, and a variable-shaped pickup coil. When the coil nears metal, the control
box signals its presence with a tone, light, or needle movement. Signal intensity typically increases with
proximity. Another common type are stationary "walk through" metal detectors used at access points
in prisons, courthouses, airports and psychiatric hospitals to detect concealed metal weapons on a person's
body.

The simplest form of a metal detector consists of an oscillator producing an alternating current that passes
through a coil producing an alternating magnetic field.[6][7][8] If a piece of electrically conductive metal is
close to the coil, eddy currents will be induced (inductive sensor) in the metal, and this produces a magnetic
field of its own.[9] If another coil is used to measure the magnetic field (acting as a magnetometer), the
change in the magnetic field due to the metallic object can be detected.

Obstacle Detector:
An obstacle detection system uses ultrasonic sensors mounted on the front and/or rear bumpers. These
sensors can measure the distance between your car and nearby obstacles directly around the front or rear
bumper. The driver is alerted by beeps or the dashboard display.
Power Supply:
Power supply is the source of electricity. This power supply unit provides power to the systems in the
required amounts to the required stages. We use 3 batteries each of 4V in series in order to provide +12V
power supply. But the circuit needs only 5V so we use a 7805 voltage regulator. In addition with this we use
Capacitors, Resistors, Diodes, Transistors and Crystal Oscillators in this circuit.

 The L293 IS designed to provide bidirectional drive currents of up to 1A at voltage from 4.5V to 36V.

 The L293D is designed to provide bidirectional drive currents of up to 600-mA at voltages from 4.5V to
36V.

 The L293D IC has sixteen pins. There are four input pins and four ground pins. Two motors are connected
between the four output pins.

 The L293D IC can drive two linear DC motors orone Stepper motor at a time.
Zigbee Module:
Zigbee devices can transmit data over long distances by passing data through a mesh network of
intermediate devices to reach more distant ones. Zigbee is typically used in low data rate applications that
require long battery life and secure networking. (Zigbee networks are secured by 128-bit symmetric
encryption keys.)

GSM SIM 800L Module:

The SIM800L is a GSM module with a serial interface. It can send and receive text messages and receive
phone calls. It can also connect to the internet and receive FM signals. The SIM800L can be connected to a
microcontroller using the serial UART interface, and in the example shown below, connected to an Arduino.

MOTORS Linear motor:

In any electric motor, operation is based on simple electromagnetism. A current-carrying conductor
generates a magnetic field; when this is then placed in an external magnetic field, it will experience a force
proportional to the current in the conductor, and to the strength of the external magnetic field. As you are
well aware of from playing with magnets as a kid, opposite (North and South) polarities attract, while like
polarities (North and North, South and South) repel. The internal configuration of a DC motor is designed to
hardness the magnetic interaction between a current-carrying conductor and an external magnetic field to
generate rotational motion. Let’s start by looking at a simple 2-pole DC electric motor (here red represents a
magnet or winding with a “North” polarization, while green represents a magnet or winding with a “South”
polarization).

Every DC motor has six basic parts — axle, rotor (a.k.a., armature), stator, commutator , field magnet(s),
and brushes. In most common DC motors (and all that Beamers will see), the external magnetic field is
produced by high-strength permanent magnets. The stator is the stationary part of the motor i.e., this
includes the motor casing, as well as two or more permanent magnet pole pieces. The rotor (together with
the axle and attached commutator) rotates with respect to the stator. The rotor consists of windings
(generally on a core), the windings being electrically connected to the commutator. The above diagram
shows a common motor layout with the rotor inside the stator (field) magnets.

 5. Conclusion:
The main motive of the war spying robot was to make it user friendly. The spy robot can easily move,
capture images and wirelessly transmit them, thus giving the soldiers an intimation about the dangers and
situations in the war field. The robot will move depending on the motor direction based upon the input we
give through transmitter (remote) section. At the receiver end, these decoded signal are given as input to
drive the motor. The robot is used for short distance surveillance thus ensuring the security of the region.
This helps the forces to view the things accurately that are currently happening in the surrounding area and
to plan ahead accordingly.
