Description
Summary:Along the way with the evolvement and advancement of science and technology, human beings tend to use robot to perform their daily routine works or some dangerous tasks such as rescuing victims from hazardous sites, whereby the rescuing tasks might pose certain level of risks to human beings. In conjunction of that reason, the ultimate goal, aim and objective of this project is to develop and implement an Autonomous Fire-Fighting Mobile Platform (AFFMP) that is equipped with the basic fire-fighting knowledge that can patrol through the hazardous sites with the aim of early detection for fire and extinguish it using the built-in fire extinguishing system on the platform itself. The AFFMP is capable to patrol the building continuously via the guiding track while at the same time, it attempts to locate for fire source by using the Flame Sensors as the primary detection. The detection for the occurrence of fire source in AFFMP is also assisted by the secondary detection sensors, which are the Heat/Temperature Sensor and the Smoke Sensor as well. Once the fire source is being identified, it will move directly towards the fire source and extinguish it in the shortest time by using the fire extinguisher that is attached to its platform. In short, the project can be considered as successful as it has achieved the expected goals and objectives.
