Temperature Sensed Obstacle Avoiding Robot

Robots are machines capable of sensing its surroundings and carry out a series of pre-assigned tasks with very little or in some cases no direction from a human being. Robots are getting more and more aggravated with the uncovering of each new technology and in recent years, they are being constructed purposively for specific applications to operate in challenging conditions. This paper proposes an obstacle detection technique based on temperature sensing which is capable of operating in high temperatures. In case of a fire breakout robots equipped with this technology will be able to avoid obstacles close to the fire source to get to an advanced position and take necessary steps for fire containment. Furthermore, in case of fire exposure, these robots are capable of automatically backing up from the scene and get to a more suitable position for further activities.
