Selection of components and materials for Firefighting robots

Abstract

Nowadays robots are used for various purpose in various fields. From use of pick and place in big industries to cleaning of house they are nowadays use everywhere. As they work fast give precise result and most importantly reduces human effort. Human may make mistake but robots don't they work as per the input given to them. Mostly robots are used in huge industries, Hospitals, Factories, Defence, etc. They can also be used to perform dangerous and difficult operations. Extinguishing fire is one part of that, it is important to extinguish or control huge fire to some extent till the fire truck arrives. This fire can be anywhere at home, office, school/college, etc. Extinguishing fire without any injury to human is one of the major problems in today's world. Robots can be used for that purpose too with proper component and material selection, but the materials that used for making these types of robots must have some fire and thermal resistivity property in it. In this paper proper review of various components and material is done. Also, which type of material must be used for fire extinguishing purpose is also mentioned in this paper. The selection of proper Component and material selection for a firefighting robot are provided in details.
