BORE WELL RESCUE ROBOTS

BY L.CHANDANA Y16EC881

INTRODUCTION  Children often fall down in the bore well which have

been left uncovered and get trapped.  The rescue of this trapped children is not only difficult but also risky.  A small delay in the rescue can cost the child his or her life.  To lift the child out the narrow confines of the bore wells is also not very easy.  Robot for bore well rescue offers a solution to these kind of situations.

WHAT IS A RESCUE ROBOT?  A rescue robot is a robot that has been

designed for the purpose of rescuing people.  Common situation that employ rescue robots are mining accidents ,urban disasters, hostage situations and explosions.  Rescue robots in development are being made with abilities such as searching, mapping, removing, medical treatment etc,.

THE DELIVARABLES REQUIRED FOR A RESCUE ROBOT ARE  A visual system for the

robot  Human victim detection  Hazardous material signs detection  Easy to use interface for controlling the robot

PROCEDURE  The bore well rescue robot is designed to

provide the child with two level of safety achieved by  1.using robotic arms at the top and  2.safety airbag at the bottom. This arrangement ensures that the child does not slip further deep during the rescue operation.  The robot is operated through personal computer according to the observations made continuously using CCTV camera.

ROBOT CONTROL INTERFACE  The robot control interface will send all commands to

the robot via TCP/IP socket messages passed over the wireless network, where the primary control system on the robot will interpret these messages and forward them to their respective sub-system on the robot.

OBJECTIVES

 Manually monitoring the child with the help

of camera and controlling unit of robot.  Communicating with the robot by sending appropriate commands to it.  Once the robot has reached proximity of child, it is stopped immediately and is given the commands by the controlling device to perform the closing of the robotic arms.  4.Oxygen supply is activated immediately to overcome its scarcity and entire arrangement is pulled up.

Result and Conclusion  This type of rescue robots performs the rescuing actions more precisely in very limited time.  Usage of robotic arms ensures the rescuing action in both conditions such as when the child has been

struck in between or at the bottom of the well.  The inclusion of metallic plates has been proposed to provide an additional support and ensure the complete safety of the child.  The robot is also capable of performing life saving actions like supplying oxygen.

FURTHER ENCHANCEMENTS  The metallic plates can be used below the safety

airbag in order to provide extra support to the child from the bottom.  A small vacuum unit with appropriate pressure could be used to suck the mud particles that have been accumulated over the baby and disturbing the proper acquisition of the images.  Sponge kind of soft material can be used at the inner arms of the Robot, taking care that it will not hurt the Baby while holding.  A mesh structure can be designed in order to prevent the falling of mud over the child.
