ABSTRACT - In this paper, design and fabrication of I.O.T. Based Fire Fighting Robot is discussed. The main objective of the robot is to extinguish the fire in the area where the fire men cannot enter inside. Now a days, fire accidents are very common and sometimes it becomes very difficult for a fireman to save someone’s life.It is not possible to appoint a person to continuously observe for accidental fire where robot can do that. Therefore in such cases firefighting robot comes in picture. Robot will detect fire remotely. These robots are mostly useful in industries where probability of accidental fire is more. The proposed vehicle is able to detect presence of fire and extinguishing it automatically by using smoke sensor and temperature sensor. It contains gear motors and motor driver to control the movement of robot. Relay circuit is used to control the pump and when it will detect fire then it will communicate with microcontroller (Arduino IDE) through Hotspot module. The proposed robot has a water jet spray which is capable of sprinkling water. The sprinkler can be move towards the required direction. At the time of moving towards the source of fire it may happen that it will come across some obstacles, then it has obstacle avoiding capability because of it has a night vision camera. With the help of camera we can see all obstacles which will come in the way of robot. Communication between the mobile phone and robot will take place with the help of camera because camera is two way operatable which is operate with the help of Hotspot and I.O.T.
