Abstract
We live in a world which is continuously prone to Fire Hazards. Progressive growth of the Fire Fighting ability is the need of the hour. But nowadays it's facing a lot of problems due to non-using modern techniques. The WHO (World Health Organization) estimates there are more than 1.2 lakh people who die every year. Nowadays, there is a rapid surge in cases of small-scale fire catching incidences which if are not controlled on time, may lead to some severe damage. More of these bigger incidences occur where human intervention is not easily possible to suppress those small fires. To overcome this, Designing and manufacturing a firefighting UAV to specifically aid firefighters can be done. A remote-controlled UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) is used to drop a fire extinguisher ball to avoid small scale fires. The UAV is operated by manual flight plans and the dropping mechanism is manually triggered by RF Controller. The movement of the drone is controlled by the radio controller and the speed of the drone is also controlled by it. This project describes the development of UAV and the Dropping Mechanism associated with it. This model is used to throw fire extinguishing content to areas that aren't easily accessible by humans. This helps the user in reducing the time taken and also provides safety to the affected. This drone system mainly works on the principle of thrust. This project mainly concentrates on designing a low weight structure for the drone that drops Fire Extinguishing Ball on consecutive fire.
