Development of an Artificial Intelligent Firefighting Robot and Experiment Investigation on Fire Scene Patrol

Abstract

Nowadays, due to human irresponsibility, unpredictable climate fluctuations, and household and industrial settings, fire incidents happen regularly. This study describes a firefighting robot that uses artificial intelligence to identify fire incidents and have capability to put out a fire remotely, minimising the risk to fire fighters. The firefighting robot moves according to a combination of user supervision and sensor-based inputs. Software includes integrated tracking, flame detection, obstacle avoidance, and fire extinguishing. The direction and amount of water sprayed can be adjusted by the servo motor that is attached to the firefighting hose. In the final phase, a simulated fire trial environment was used to assess the firefighting robot's performance. During an autonomous inspection of the fire affected area, the firefighting robot has the ability to identify flame in real time, initiate the automatic fire extinguishing by the fire extinguishing system, and manage the fire during its initial stages.
