Fire incident is a disaster that can potentially cause the loss of life, property damage and
permanent disability to the affected victim. They can also suffer from prolonged
psychological and trauma. Fire fighters are primarily tasked to handle fire incidents, but they are
often exposed to higher risks when extinguishing fire, especially in hazardous environments
such as in nuclear power plant, petroleum refineries and gas tanks. They are also faced with
other difficulties, particularly if fire occurs in narrow and restricted places, as it is necessary to
explore the ruins of buildings and obstacles to extinguish the fire and save the victim. With
high barriers and risks in fire extinguishment operations, technological innovations can
be utilized to assist firefighting. Therefore, this paper presents the development of a
firefighting robot dubbed that can extinguish fire without the need for fire fighters to be
exposed to unnecessary danger. is designed to be compact in size than other conventional fire-
fighting robot in order to ease small location entry for deeper reach of extinguishing fire in
narrow space. is also equipped with an ultrasonic sensor to avoid it from hitting any obstacle and
surrounding objects, while a flame sensor is attached for fire detection. This resulted in
demonstrating capabilities of identifying fire locations automatically and ability to
extinguish fire remotely at particular distance. is programmed to find the fire location and stop
at maximum distance of 40 cm from the fire. A human operator can monitor the robot by
using camera which connects to a Smartphone or remote devices.
