Roselectronics: Robot for extinguishing fires

2021: Creating a machine-trained robot to extinguish fires at industrial facilities

At the end of August 2021, Roselectronics introduced a robot for extinguishing fires at industrial facilities, ships and drilling platforms. The robotic system, supplemented by machine training, was developed by the Energia plant, which is part of the holding.

The complex consists of a stationary fire robot, a television explosion-proof camera and a power supply unit. When a flame is detected, the complex transmits the coordinates of the combustion center to the control system, which automatically sets the canopy (water cannon) to fire. The system automatically logs incidents, and all camera videos are saved to the archive.

When integrated into the existing security system, the fire department can also perform security functions: it is able to detect violators and prevent them from entering the site using a stream of water.

A fire at an industrial facility always involves a high level of risk, "says Sergey Sakhnenko, general director of the United Instrument-Making Corporation (Roselectroniki management company). - The most reliable and efficient solutions are required to prevent man-made accidents. The robotic fire complex developed by us allows us to automatically detect, recognize and respond to an emergency situation at an early stage.

Rostec added that when integrated into the existing security system, the fire complex can also perform security functions: it is able to detect violators and prevent them from entering the object using a stream of water. The device weighs 18 kg.

The dates of the start of sales and the cost of the new product by the end of August 2021 are not called.^[1]
