Abstract: A Fire Fighting Robot is a machine that can operate on its own or with some help from a person. It is made to find and extinguish fires in places that are too risky for humans to go into. The main aim of this project is to build a robot that can detect fire sources and put them out quickly, which helps protect property and save lives. In this project, the robot has various sensors and components that allow it to act smartly. One of these sensors is an IR sensor, which detects fire by sensing the heat and light from flames. Once the robot sees a fire, it moves towards it using DC or BO motors. These motors are controlled by a module called L298N. The brain of the robot is an Arduino UNO microcontroller that receives data from the sensors and tells the motors and water pump what to do. When the robot gets close to the fire, it turns on a small water pump. This pump releases water through a nozzle that is controlled by a servo motor. The robot is powered by a rechargeable battery that can be either 3.7V or 9V. Other parts like the TIP-122 transistor, resistors, and capacitors help keep the robot electronics running smoothly. This system can be improved by adding wireless control through Bluetooth or Wi-Fi, allowing users to control the robot manually via a smartphone app if needed. The design is affordable, easy to carry, and works well for small fires that happen in homes, labs, or small factories. The Fire Fighting Robot shows how embedded systems, sensors, and automation can be used in real-world situations. It helps manage emergencies and makes environments safer by reducing the danger to people. Future improvements might include using AI for better vision, sensors like ultrasonic or LiDAR for navigation, and IoT technology for real-time updates and tracking.
