CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Fire is a threat to life and property and could create emotional distress to its
victims. Mostly, it happens in the heart of a home, Home Fires can occur for a variety of
reasons, but many are preventable. Unattended cooking is the leading cause of home fires,
followed by heating equipment, electrical malfunction, intentional fires and smoking
materials. A house can easily catch a fire especially during summer months wherein
temperatures can soar past 400°C and teamed with a dry climate, conditions are ideal for
fires to break out. Fire can spread rapidly through your home, leaving you as little as one
or two minutes to escape safely once the smoke alarm sounds.
Fire is a classical element that has been an equalizer on Earth prior to the start
of written history. It has many positive attributes (heat, energy, cleansing, etc.) but it can
be extremely dangerous when outside of control. Structure, vehicle, aircraft ship fires and
wildfires can wreak havoc and cause serious injury and/or death. Thankfully, brave men
and women have dedicated their lives to protecting others from flames that can occur due
to a myriad of reasons anywhere, at any time. Unfortunately, firefighters are only human
and can succumb to injury or death as well.
The SAFARBOT is a robot device that has a self -alarm notification. The
function of the SAFARBOT is to detect the temperature and UV light of the fire. The
shape of the SAFARBOT helps protect the inside of the robot from damage.
1
According to the National Fire Protection Association, there were 29,130
injuries reported while fighting fire in 2015. These injuries are also coupled with 68 on-
duty deaths. Injuries and casualties are the reason why safety professionals, the
government and high-tech companies have come together in order to create firefighting
robots that can perform tasks too risky for people.
STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
This study aimed to create a device that could help people when there's a fire.
Specially, to determine the following.
Specific problem
1. How could accurate the device helping people when there is a fire?
2. Could the range of detection can reach 5 meters?
3. What is the satisfaction of SAFARBOT? in terms of:
A. Effectiveness

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE
Fire alarm have been a lot of devices that help people to improve their safety
from fire. The researchers made a SAFARBOT device that help to detect the fire. The
SAFARBOT is a device that use sensors and notification. One of the programmable
microcontroller that used is the Arduino Nano that play the important role. The Arduino
Nano is a platform for creating electronic projects. The programmable microcontroller
known as IDE (Integrated Development Environment) that runs on your computer and it
used to create and upload computer code.
For the Notification, SMS is usually used. The SMS Notification is an acronym
used in the world of communication technology. It stands for short messaging service
which is a protocol used to provide the user with reminders or an information. The
technology behind SMS has paved the way for the rapid growth of improvement of text
3
messaging. SMS provides a very convenient method of exchanging small bits of
information between mobile users.
And for the sensors, Flame sensor and temperature sensor is usually used in these
device. The flame sensor is a designed to detect and respond to the presence of fire. It used
to detect the flame IR (infrared) flame detectors monitor the heat radiation generated by
fire, with a response time of roughly 3 to 5 seconds.
On the other hand, temperature sensor is a device used to measure the
temperature of the fire. It detect and absorbs temperature which dictates what action will
the device. These type of sensor measure the amount of heat or cold in the system. The
measurement are done either by contact or non- contact temperature sensor.
Related Studies
Izang et al. 2018 Designed an SMS Based Fire Alarm and Detection System.
The system works when fire or gas is detected by the sensors, the Arduino will trigger the
GSM module to send SMS. Their study is all about a fire alarm that uses a system called
Fire Alarm Control PANEL (FACP) fitted with a digital Alarm communicator Transmitter
(DACT). They concluded that although this fire alarm system is quite effective, the only
downside is that it has few function and very costly.
In another study by Jinan et al. 2018, Jinan designed and implemented a
factory Security System that consist of a flame sensor, a GSM (Global System for Mobile
communication) module and a sound module. When the fire is detected, an SMS will be
sent to a number. The disadvantage of the system is that there is no device that can stop
4
the fire, when there is fire outbreak the necessary device to extinguish the fire is not
included in the system which may cost loss of properties.
THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK
Primarily, this study has its support from Republic Act 9514 or the “Fire
Code of the Philippines of 2008”, particularly the enforcement and adherence of standard
fire prevention and safety measures (Republic Act No. 9514). The “hazard- barrier-target
model” developed by William Haddon Jr. (Haddon 1973) also became the anchor for this
study. The “hazard-barrier-target model” is a synthetic integration of risk reduction or
accident reduction strategies.
Moreover, by non-experimental, it means that the study did not involve any
control or experimental groups as sources of data. There was no use of a laboratory but
used only survey instruments to collect the data (punch, 2013), this study, however, used
the secondary data available in the office of the Bureau of Fire Protection. The Study’s
result would be the basis for proposing intervention strategies to prevent fire in homes and
the community.

TOOLS OF DATA ANALYSIS
The researchers have obtained information from credible internet sources,
observation, related books and interviewing experts in order to understand the
principles and designs of the system. The data collected will be guided for the system
design.
ETHICAL CONSIDERATION
The protection of human subjects through the application of appropriate
ethical principles is important in any research study. In qualitative study, ethical
consideration have a particular resonance due to the in depth nature of the study
process. The concern of ethical issues become more salient when conducting face to
face interview with vulnerable group of participant. The existing ethical guidance
for undertaking qualitative research often provide general guidelines rather than
focusing on how to apply it in practice.

CHAPTER IV
SUMMARY, CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMEDATIONS
This chapter summarized the findings, present the conclusion and the
recommendation of the robot.
SUMMARY
This study's problem was the fire which spreads fast everytime when
something was burning that can cause wildfire. The Researchers purpose was to alert
peoples that there's a fire that might spread around the place and also to enhance
their knowledge about the inventions and innovation made by the technology.
The self -activating fire alarm robot with phone Notice (SAFARBOT)
has a two sensors the temperature and UV light sensor. The brain of the device is
the Arduino Nano it holds everything and it helps to function properly.
The Researcher's satisfied in terms of effectiveness, durability and
capacity. However, Self-activating fire alarm robot with phone Notice
(SAFARBOT) has a limitation of 6 inches detecting the UV light of the fire. The
(SAFARBOT) is also sensitive in outdoor.
CONCLUSION
The Researchers finished the study neat and clean. The Researchers listed
how effective our Robot is, how durable it is. The Researchers also ask our
respondents if our robot is safe when you use it. However the device does have
31
limitation on detecting UV light in fire. Also, the device is sensitive when you use
it outdoor. After all, you can say that the Self activating fire alarm robot with phone
Notice (SAFARBOT) is really helpful and efficient when there’s a fire. It can be
really helpful to the respondents.
In the view of the result of the study. SAFARBOT serve a purpose to
Self –Alarm. It was designed to Self- Alarm and notify the phone number that in the
SIM of the robot, if there’s a fire on the place where they put the SAFARBOT.
Stakeholders in fire department services should adopt the technique
proposed in this research for fire detection as a stepping stone towards a faster
response time to fire incidents. This will go a long way in saving lives and property.
Data collected from the detection device also provide an opportunity for better
reporting and data analysis which could help in the process of improving fire
detection services especially in Kenya where there is insufficient recording and
publishing of information relating to fire.
RECOMMENDATION
The researcher suggests using a SELF-ACTIVATING FIRE ALARM
ROBOT (SAFARBOT) to alert people when there is a fire in their area, particularly
in indoor areas, to ensure that the robot detects the fire rather than the UV lights.
They assist in warning and keeping people safe. The firefighters will respond faster
if a fire is detected early enough by the fire alarm robot. This means you can easily
avoid major property damage as well as human casualties. It can provide
32
homeowners with all-day protection. When you are away from home, as well as at
night when you are fast asleep, the entire house is monitored. This benefit gives
homeowners peace of mind because they know the monitor will never turn off.
The researchers also suggested that the device be given a phone
number so that the owner can get notified when there is a fire. The research suggest
that using SAFARBOT to make sure it charge so it will not turn off. The researchers
suggest that the capacity of the SAFARBOT be improved so that it can detectable.
When, it's comes to the ability of a physical products to remain functional, the robot
is extremely durable.
