Remote Controlled Rescue Robot Using Zigbee Technology

Abstract

Human uses robot for various domestic and commercial purpose. There are small robots which are able to fly above damaged areas or crawl into collapsed buildings and under water. Bhutan due to its geo-physical location, is one of the seismically active zones experiencing deadly earthquakes followed by other natural disasters. After natural disasters, these often leave widespread damage and those injured can often be very hard to reach for rescue teams. Robot plays a vital role as life-saving aid where human and the rescue teams cannot access. In this project, it describes about the construction of the remote-controlled arm crawler robot which consists of transmitter (wireless remote) and receiver (Arm crawler with mounted camera) station. With the help of XCTU software, communication between two XBee devices are configured and used for longer distance. The movement of the robot is controlled by the remote wirelessly and the video can be displayed on android as well as the monitor.
