Life Saving hanging Robot (LShR) using MSP430 (Modern Mine Surveillance)

J. Ferin Joseph, David Anthony Durand

Abstract: This Life Saving hanging Robot (LShR) is used as the safety precaution device for the people who work in mines and tunnels. It is similar to a rope car which will be hanged in a rope and working according to the instructions and also applicable by working automated by indicating the cautions. It has sensors such as Temperature, Smoke, Gas, LDR which can sense the condition of the surroundings and ensure the normal condition periodically, also Ultrasonic sensor and motor driver are used for navigation of the robot device throughout the mine and check the conditions. MSP430 microprocessor has been used to connect the sensors and the navigation device. The indications of environmental conditions due to change in the chemical composition of surroundings are monitored by getting the values of each sensors in a periodic manner. The entire process has been automated where the alert will be ON when any causation is identified. The device is connected in wireless monitor by using the Bluetooth module for a short distance wireless communication and for more distance coverage Xbee module and GSM can also be used. This can also be monitored using mobile application.
