1. FIREGUARD: A FIRE AND SMOKE DETECTING
ROBOT FOR STUDENTS’ SAFETY
Presentation by Group 7
2. STATEMENT OF THE
PROBLEM
Spotting fires fast isn't easy: Current fire alarms can be slow,
especially in large or complex buildings. This delay lets fires
spread and cause damage before they're even detected.
Water can be risky for some fires: While water is helpful for many
fires, it can be dangerous for electrical fires or fires involving
chemicals. Using water in the wrong situation can make the fire
worse.
3. STATEMENT OF THE
PROBLEM
Robots haven't learned to use water safely yet: Current
firefighting robots can't effectively distinguish between different
fire types and use water safely and appropriately. This limits their
usefulness and can create potential hazards.
4. RATIONALE
The rationale behind this study lies in the development of the students' safety in fire
accidents in their boarding houses and apartments. By building a small robot that can
detect fire and smoke can significantly help to improve the students’ safety and can
also to prevent fire accidents in their boarding houses and apartments. As follows,
the significant gap in using FireGuard lies in the persistent threat of fire and
limitations of current solutions. This study aims to fill this gap by eliminating sudden
fires and smoke. By addressing this research gap, the researchers hope to
significantly improve and pave the way for innovative fire management solutions.
These smart devices exceed the limitations of traditional methods by providing a
proactive and efficient approach to fire prevention.
