[CNIT581-SDR/Spring 2018] Fire Fighting Smart Robot

Team members: Enchun Shao and Huyunting Huang         This week, we collected our iRobot for our project. We have also learned how to assign instructions to the iRobot and then iRobot will follow the instructions such as LED display, moving correctly. Since our project is related to iRobot, we will learn more on that and start to work on our algorithm. After we are familiar with the iRobot, we will probably decide which sensor to use for our project as well.

Team members: Enchun Shao, Huyunting Huang The robot will include a manual mode and an automatic mode and we will use iRobot, camera, detection sensor and raspberry pi to assemble the machine. We will develop an algorithm for automation mode so that the robot is able to detect some emergency situations by itself. We will choose the most appropriate detection sensor to help us detect and analyze the environment. In additional, the robot will include manual mode because we believe that there are still several emergency situations which the robot could not be detected. As a result, we will control ourselves when we consider the robot is not working as we expected. We will use raspberry pi to control the system manually and the camera will help us to view the situation. The manual mode will could be executed on a smart phone through a WIFI connection and the robot can go up, down, left, right by the control. We are able to switch between manual mode and automatic mode on the smart phon
