Solar Saviour: An Arduino-Based Firefighting Vehicle

Abstract

This paper presents the design and development of an innovative fire-fighting vehicle named "Solar Savior," integrating advanced technologies for efficient fire management and autonomous operation, is the subject of this study. The vehicle's real-time flame detection and autonomous navigation are powered by an Arduino microcontroller. Leveraging Bluetooth communication, a dedicated mobile phone application enables remote control, allowing safe operation in hazardous environments. The device allows for quick action when it detects flames by activating a water pump, sounding an alarm, and sending alerts to the control app. To gather sustainable energy and lessen dependency on outside power sources, Solar Savior also has solar panels. This increases operational efficiency. This work shows how to construct firefighting vehicles in an unconventional manner by combining autonomous capabilities with the incorporation of renewable energy sources for increased sustainability and safety.
