The Arduino-based Fire Fighting Robot with SMS Alert System is a robotic system designed to detect and extinguish fires in indoor environments. The robot uses flame sensors to detect the presence of a fire. Once a fire is detected, the robot moves towards the source of the fire and sprays water to extinguish the flames. The robot is equipped with a GSM module that can send SMS messages to alert the user when a fire is detected. This allows for prompt action to be taken to minimize damage and save lives. The components of the robot include an Arduino board, motor drivers, sensors, and a GSM module. The software code is written in the Arduino IDE and controls the motors, reads sensor data, and communicates with the GSM module. The robot is tested and debugged to ensure that it functions correctly and safely in different scenarios. Overall, the Arduino-based Fire Fighting Robot with SMS Alert provides a reliable and efficient solution for fire detection and suppression with the added benefit of remote communication and control.

Now a day's, fire accidents are very common and somewhere it is very difficult for a fireman to monitor everywhere. As automation can minimize human exertion, Automation can be achieved through robots. Robots can be mostly useful in mechanical industries. FGR is capable of detecting smoke by making use of smoke sensor. Arduino Uno is used for providing the controlling and processing of commands. As in market, there are robots available, but FGR stand out in terms of cost effective. User can operate this robot through smart phone via connectivity of Bluetooth module. With the help of a water spray mounted on it, user can help to reduce affected burnt area.

This paper aims to design a vehicle capable of detecting and extinguishing the fire. Various sensors such as smoke sensor, ultrasonic range finder and temperature sensors are installed on the vehicle to understand the environment. By implementing an autonomous firefighting vehicle disasters can be avoided with minimal risk to human life. In this paper, an autonomous vehicle which is capable of detecting fires in indoors and move towards the flame to extinguish it with the help of water and carbon dioxide is proposed.

Detecting fire and extinguishing is a hazardous job for a fire extinguisher, it often risks the life of that person. This project aims in giving a technical solution to the mentioned problem. A robot is a mechanical design that is capable of carrying out a complex series of actions automatically, especially one programmable by a computer. A fire extinguisher robot is a DTMF tone controlled robot that has a small fire extinguisher unit added on to it. This mobile robot is controlled using a mobile phone through DTMF tones for its movement and reaching the fire, the flame sensor detects the fire and gives the further signal to the extinguisher units to trigger the pump and spray the water. The whole system is programmed using an arduino UNO board (ATmega328P microcontroller) which forms the brain of the system.

A fire outbreak is a hazardous act that leads to numerous consequences. Detecting a fire at an early stage and extinguishing it can aid in prevention of various accidents. Till now we rely on human resource. This often leads to risking the life of that person. Therefore, fire security becomes an important aspect to save human lives. In this paper a fire extinguishing robot has been proposed and designed which detects the fire location and extinguish fire by using sprinklers on triggering the pump. This robot uses three flame sensors for accurate fire detection. This proposed model of Fire Extinguishing Robot using Arduino used to detect presence of fire and extinguishing it automatically without any human interference. It contains gear motors and motor driver to control the movement of robot when it detects any presence of fire and will automatically start the water pump to extinguish that fire breakout. This model robot has a water ejector which is capable of ejecting water at the fire breakout place. The water ejector pipe can be move towards the required direction using servo motor. The whole operation is controlled by an Arduino UNO micro-controller.

This advanced firefighting robotic system independently detects and extinguishes fire. In the age of technology, the world is slowly turning towards the automated system and self-travelling vehicles, fire fighters are constantly at a risk of losing their life. Even though there are a lot of precautions taken for Fire accidents, these natural/man-made disasters do occur now and then. In the event of a fire breakout, to rescue people and to put out the fire we are forced to use human resources which are not safe. With the advancement of technology especially in Robotics it is very much possible to replace humans with robots for fighting the fire. This would improve the efficiency of firefighters and would also prevent them from risking human lives Fire spreads rapidly if it is not controlled. In case of a gas leakage there even may be an explosion. So, in order to overcome this issue, safe guard live of our hero, our system comes to the rescue. This firefighting robotic system is powered by Arduino Uno development board it consists of the ultra-sonic sensor mounted on a servo motor for obstacles detection and free path navigation, it is also equipped with the fire sensor or flame sensor for detecting and approaching fire it also makes use of water tank and spray mechanism for extinguishing the fire. Water spraying nozzle is mounted on servo motor to cover maximum area. Water is pumped from the main water tank to the water nozzle with the help of a pump. This water pump needs driver circuit as it consumes a lot of current, much more than the controller provides.

The project is to develop a robotic vehicle capable of detecting the presence of fire and extinguishing it automatically. It is a movable robot that consists of gas sensor for detecting the fire, gear motor and motor driver for the movement of the robot, relay driver for pump control and a Bluetooth module which are used for the detecting and extinguishing the fire. Usually, the robot moves at a steady speed. When the gas sensor detects the fire in the environment, the signal indicating the presence of fire will be sent to the Arduino through which the extinguishing is done. In the extinguishing process, whenever the detection of fire is positive the robot will stop at the place of fire occurred and starts the pump and sprinkle water through a sprinkler until the smoke is put off. The entire control is achieved using Arduino which is interfaced with the android mobile via Bluetooth module, so that the control of the robot can be made from an android mobile as well.

Abstract— A fire fighter run into risky situations while extinguishing fire and rescuing victims. In contrast, a robot can function automatically or can be controlled from a distance, so that firefighting and rescuing activity could be executed by using a robot instead of putting fire fighters at risk. This robot uses gear motors, microcontroller, sensors, RF controller and an extinguisher. Microcontroller acts as the brain of the robot. Fire Fighting Robot continuously monitors the temperature of four temperature sensors fixed at four sides of the robot and if presence of fire is found to be true, the robot moves in the direction to which the temperature is relatively high among the four sensors and puts down the fire with the extinguisher. As the fire sensors sense the fire, it sends signal to the microcontroller via a comparator circuit. As soon as microcontroller receives the signal an alarm sounds. Also a predetermined message will be sent to the fire station using GSM modem. A...
