The fire incident is one of the man-made disasters in Malaysia due to the frequency of reported fire cases recently. The majority of all cases that involved domestic buildings had very catastrophic effects such as property losses, permanent disability to the victim, and death. We are all aware of how fast fire can spread when it rages. Therefore, owners have to be alert at all times to any factor that might lead to any small fire and that is not possible to achieve. As humans, we might get distracted by other surrounding activities but not for robots. Thus, a Fire Fighting Robot has been developed and was controlled by Arduino Uno. It is designed in a smaller size in order to ease small location entry, fully equipped with high sensitivity sensors to achieve the required research objectives of searching, detecting, and extinguishing the fire. The combination of ultrasonic and flame sensors creates a perfect guide for the robot to work effectively. This autonomous robot will search and locate the fire and send a notification to the user through Blynk application; before the extinguishing process occurs. Blynk application will also provide a monitoring platform for the user to receive information including live streaming and flame data. We tested the performance of the robot by varying the distance and size of fire source to the robot. The graph trend line showed that the time taken was linearly proportional to the distance and size of fire. We managed to obtain the equation of the dependent variable from simple linear regression. From the R 2 value of 0.9888 and 0.9865, we can say that it has a strong relationship between both variables. To summarize, the experimental result has proved its capabilities as a reliable fire protection system by searching and extinguishing a fire in time.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
