Fire incidents remain a significant threat to human life, infrastructure, and the environment, often leading to fatalities, severe injuries, property loss, and long-term psychological trauma. Firefighters, while essential in combating such disasters, are frequently exposed to extreme danger, especially in hazardous environments such as industrial plants, nuclear facilities, and densely populated urban areas. To address these challenges, this project presents the development of a compact, remotely operated firefighting robot designed to operate in environments where human intervention is difficult or unsafe. The robot is equipped with a thermal sensor, smoke sensor, and a live-feed camera to provide real-time situational data to operators. It features dual water delivery options: an onboard tank with a pumping system and an external hose connection for continuous water supply. A 360-degree rotating nozzle, controlled via remote interface, ensures targeted suppression of fire. The robot uses a chain drive mechanism powered by dual motors, enabling mobility across rough or confined terrain. Powered by a rechargeable battery, it can function in off-grid locations, and its internal electronics are enclosed to minimize heat-related failures. This solution enhances firefighter safety, improves fire response efficiency, and mitigates risks in scenarios where traditional firefighting approaches are limited.
