Abstract: The fire fighting occupation has a long history of dangerous situations. There has been numerous and devastating human losses due to lack in technological advancements. In daily life, fire hazards have become more common and it becomes the responsibility of fire fighters to overcome any difficulties and extinguish fires protecting the human life and other possible losses. But they are often exposed to higher risks while performing fire extinguishing operations, especially in hazardous environments such as in nuclear power plants and petroleum refineries. With the development in the field of robotics, human intrusion has become less and robots are being widely used in order to overcome difficulties faced by firemen. This is one of the reasons for which robots are used instead of humans to handle fire hazards. Therefore, this paper presents the event of a firefighting robot which will extinguish fire without the necessity for fire fighters to be exposed to unnecessary danger. In this project, we are developing a robot which can also be used on domestic levels for fire extinguishing operations. This robot is compact in size and may be wont to extinguish fires reaching the impacted areas through narrow pathways. It works on wireless technology using radio frequency transmitter and receiver to control the fire extinguishing operations.
