Abstract :
This paper presents the design, development,
and evaluation of a primary prototype of an Unmanned
Aerial Vehicle (UAV) in urban firefighting. It includes
the project purpose, mechatronic designs, system
architecture, hardware explanation, software simulation,
and performance evaluations. The paper focuses on
implementing a UAV that can reach high altitudes to
spot and extinguish urban fires and reduce the risks to
human life. The prototype is mainly centered around
firefighting purposes operated by officials in firefighting
departments. We discover decent success with novel
additions like tethering and throwing mechanisms in our
primary prototype, with opportunities for further
research in a properly simulated environment.
