Project Title

Self Fire Detection and Extinguishing Robot

Project Area of Specialization RoboticsProject Summary

Human intrusion generally has diminished with the rise in the field of robotics, and robots for the most part are commonly used for safety purposes in a subtle way. Fire injuries actually have for all intents and purposes become kind of normal in our everyday lives and can often kind of lead to hazards that literally make it difficult for firemen to really protect particularly human lives in a subtle way. A fire fighting robot is used in kind of such situations to for the most part protect pretty human lives, wealth and surroundings from fire incidents in a very big way. Two robotic operating modes for all intents and purposes are introduced here: basically manual mode and kind of automatic mode in a subtle way. In very Automatic mode, the robot executes controls on its generally own based on a predefined user order. We use OpenCV for image processing to for the most part detect flames in a pretty major way. The standard shades of fire are defined by the very upper and for all intents and purposes lower boundaries of the red, really orange and basically yellow HSV color spaces. The water spraying process kind of is fully automated in a subtle way.
 

Project Objectives Project Implementation Method

As robotic technologies have evolved and have become an integral part of our lives, many individuals have made attempts to find an alternative for human work and fresh enhancement of embedded design technology, particularly as people lose their lives during fire hazards.

This helps robotics to work to their full capacity and to consider complicated and challenging situations following a catastrophe, but if the robots battle against fire hazards rather than react after the threat happens, it will be effortful.

There has been a mandatory need for production systems in cities and major towns, and this robot has been designed to meet the demanding climate of such topographical areas. Implementing fire sensors located by calculating the spectrum of fire radiation is the fundamental concept. There are smoke alarms and gas detectors that are usually affordable and simple fire prevention solutions.

What new advances include distributed fire optic temperature sensors used to extinguish fire? This module uses ultrasonic sensor systems with wireless sensors that sense obstacles and switch according to the obstacles found. For colour video clips, optical image processing equipment was used and the flames could be sensed.

Benefits of the Project

With the exponential growth of technologies and creativity, the emphasis on the field of fire detection literally has been growing over the past kind of few decades in a subtle way. On navy submarines, where the expense of actually such fires specifically has proved to for all intents and purposes be devastating, one of the main applications for such technologies literally is in a big way.

Losses related to fires for all intents and purposes hit $50 million in 2007 and $70 million in damages mostly were caused in May 2008 for all intents and purposes due to fires on board the USS George Washington Japan aircraft carrier in a subtle way. Latest results for the most part showed that 36 percent of naval personnel smoked, which can definitely equate on board to sort of more than 1000 smokers.

This for all intents and purposes raises the risk of fire destruction and essentially has been one of the key reasons why the US Navy definitely has specifically spent time and money in alternative fire detection systems for testing in a big way.

The findings of their experiments have been reviewed and they for all intents and purposes indicate adequacy in identifying fairly real fires but insufficient progress in minimising basically false alarm rates in a kind of big way.

Although the identification and avoidance of fire is necessary for highly equipped naval vessels, it may really be applied to for all intents and purposes other areas, such as factories and warehouses, which could basically include banks and really main government buildings; fires in those areas may actually have substantial immediate financial impacts and the loss of highly sensitive knowledge, which literally is quite significant.

Technical Details of Final Deliverable

The final project will be able to detect fire using the camera installed using image processing and than move towards the fire all the while avoiding the obstacles in the way by the help of the ultra sonic sensor then extinguish the fire completely by spraying fire retardent (water) on the flames. 

All this is controlled by the raspberry pie which controls the movements of the robot and also the spraying action of the robot. 

The project will be coded in Python usinf The openCV library for image processing. The movemen code is also in Python aswell.
