Abstract

Fires can occur anywhere, be it in schools, offices, and housing or other open spaces. Fire cannot be predicted when it will happen. In the modern era robots are one of the very special technologies, the benefits of these robots can facilitate human work. Robot cars in this era are attracting quite a lot of attention from experts to develop. Therefore, the author designed a "Wall Follower-based Fire Extinguishing Robot using a 5 Channel fire sensor" to reduce the risk of fire. This robot uses the HC-SR04 sensor to detect the barrier wall so that the extinguishing robot reaches the fire point. For the microcontroller tool used in this design system in the form of an Arduino Nano microcontroller which functions as part of the 5 Channel Flame Sensor controller to detect hotspots and a DC water pump to extinguish the fire. In this study using experimental research. This robot has successfully passed the track and put out the fire as the author has designed. The average flame sensor on this robot can read the fire point at a distance of 20 cm with angles of 90°, 60°, 120°, 150°, then the output voltage generated on the DC motor with a PWM value of 191 or 75% duty cycle produces an output of 8.77V measured using a multimeter, and this robot can extinguish the fire on the track with different distances with an average fire extinguishing time of 7.1 seconds.
