Abstract—Taking all aspects under consideration regarding accidents caused by natural disasters there creates a situation where we cannot access some places physically, so we came up with an idea to help us to do so. The main motto of the human rescue and environment monitoring robot is to assist in rescue missions, monitoring the environment of inaccessible places, and finding the position of the person to be rescued using video feedback. The four-wheeled robot is designed to be driven both manually and autonomously. The robot consists of multiple sensors for avoiding obstacles as well as it incorporates various sensing modules for monitoring the surrounding environment where all the data is presented to the user end. For visual monitoring, a camera is integrated into the module, and to detect an endangered person a motion sensor is available in the robot which makes the system a smart approach for human salvage.

Index Terms— four-wheeled robot, rescue, ssh terminal, sensor, serial monitor, wireless
