Using an Arduino Uno board and connecting it with fire sensors, the robot can detect temperatures as they rise. The robot gets activated as soon as the temperature crosses a certain mark. Guided by its ultrasonic sensors, it then reaches the place of fire and activates the fire extinguishing systems. Because, this robot is equipped with a navigation system it can make its way through obstructions in path. In case of fire, the system guides the robot to reach the zone of high temperature caused by fire. A robot like this is enormously useful in handling fire at places where it is difficult for humans to reach easily.
