Abstract

As the frequency and intensity of fires increases, demand for efficient and reliable fire protection technologies increases. In response, this study presents the development of an Arduino-based autonomous firefighting robot that is designed to navigate dangerous environments and effectively extinguish fires. The robot integrates fire detection, obstacle avoidance, and environmental monitoring sensors to navigate autonomously through complex interior spaces, identify fire sources, and locate them. Using a combination of infrared sensors, ultrasonic sensors and thermal imaging cameras, the robot dynamically assesses its surroundings and detects obstacles and potential fire hazards in real time. The integration of Arduino microcontroller technology allows fast data processing and decision making, enabling fast and accurate responses to changing environmental conditions. The fire suppression mechanism uses a combination of water spraying and extinguishing agents, controlled by Arduino actuators, to effectively suppress fires while ensuring minimal damage. Through thorough tests in simulated fire scenarios, the prototype developed shows promising capabilities in autonomous navigation, fire detection and suppression. The proposed system has a significant potential to strengthen traditional fire control measures by offering a cost-effective and scalable solution for responding and reducing fire emergencies in different indoor environments.
