GPRS-Based Robotic Tracking System with Real Time Video Streaming

Abstract

This paper presents a remote monitoring system using web-based/mobile application for detecting explosive gases. ROBODEM (Robot-Detection-Explosive-Materials) system aims to develop a remotely controlled explosive gas detection system handled by a LEGO-Mindstrom-NXT robot. The main controller has been designed using Ardunio-Uno microcontroller with IP camera for live video streaming, GPS for live tracking and gas detection system using MQ6 and MQ5 sensors, and. This robot can be controlled either indoor using Bluetooth or outdoor using the Internet. ROBODEM provides sensors results, daily reports, an alarm and notification emails/SMS. The prototype has been tested experimentally and the results are analyzed and discussed.
