Hazard Reconnaissance Rover Using Raspberry Pi and Multiple Sensors

This paper presents a model of a rover which enhances the human reach during catastrophic situations. To implement the proposed model as a hardware tool, we utilize a four-wheeled rover powered by Raspberry Pi with a compact body, where multiple sensors like temperature, humidity and gas detector sensors along with a night vision camera module are integrated. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed rover is able to traverse and survey in the areas where human reach seems unlikely, especially in hazardous situations.
