An efficient and inexpensive energy source, coal provides stable and large scale electricity generation. Coal mining has some problem associated with it. Mine collapse, coal dust, mine explosion are a few such. Out of these coal mine explosion can be the most disastrous. Safety on site is all about removing the possible risk from the job and miner from hazardous operation. Fire accidents may occur due to explosive or flammable materials. They can be prevented by taking safety measures. Robots are best and efficient way for taking these safety measures. So we are developing a ROBOT to detect fire and rescue from fire. Various sensors like temperature, humidity, gas sensors are employed to measure temperature, humidity level and presence of toxic gases. All the sensed parameters are then transmitted to monitoring station through a microcontroller (ATMEGA328).so that information regarding the underground climatic condition is obtained. Image signal processing is used to detect the fire. Alarming and alerting unit is used for indication of fire. We use microcontroller in the control unit that tend to act as a brain.
