Wireless integrated robots for guidance of rescue teams

Nowadays, the number of disasters occurred and the people affected have been increased. Every day, newspapers report new disasters around the world. Immediately after the occurrence of a disaster, the first responders go to the affected region to rescue people and solve eventual problems. These areas offer many dangers to the rescue team. So it is very important to first verify the safety of the environment before sending the rescue team inside the affected area. So intelligent robots equipped with advanced sensors, cameras and integrating wireless networks are attracting attention from researchers and rescuers all around the world. This paper is an application of a robot that will be used for guiding rescue teams when disasters happens using wireless sensor network. The wireless sensor network consists of two fixed nodes and moving nodes with the robot and rescue teams. The searching robot autonomously navigates, searches for living human beings, collects data from the air quality control module, localizes it with respect to the fixed nodes and sends the data. The rescue team can wirelessly receive the data in real time and locate the robot precisely. By that way the rescue team will be able to know if the area is safe or not before entering it.
