BERNa (Bomb or Explosives Rescue-bot and Navigating Agent)

Abstract

INTRODUCTION

Educational robot is the most powerful teaching/ learning material that can help the students in learning new things and easily engage them in technology which can help them in the future. It will be a big help to the humans due to their capability that humans doesn't have. Also, it can be an effective tool for STEM program as it helps them in mathematical and solving problem. A robot is made of component parts of sensors, motors and programs. These parts depends on different fields of knowledge such as engineering, electronics and computer science.

METHODS

The components of Bomb or Explosives Rescue-bot and Navigating Agent are: Atx2 Board that serves the brain of the robot; ADX BT blue stick interface board -chip that controls the robot using Bluetooth in mobile phone; 7 DC motor (dynamo) attached in its wheels; a gripper and a battery holder where the battery is being placed.Through the use of the Bluestick app, the robot will be controlled. The Go Pro cam is downloaded to another phone where you can see or monitor what is happening. The robot can move forward, backward, turn left and right. There is a gripper where it grabs the bombs and put it on safe place. This will assure that no one will be harmed. There is also an excavator for digging out bombs under the ground and bomb bin for placing the bombs safely.

RESULTS

Presence of Bomb or Explosives Rescue-bot and Navigating Agent at the community will keep the community safe and secure in terms of safety, security and protection of the people.The application of Bomb or Explosives Rescue-bot and Navigating Agent is a great help to the humans, rescuers and government. It save lives by grabbing the vintage bombs and put it in a safe place. It also help the rescuer to rescue victims in times of bomb explosions and earthquake.

DISCUSSIONS

Through Robotics, it can produce a functional robot like Bomb or Explosives Rescue-bot and Navigating Agent that can be used for disposing bomb. Safety and rescuing when there is bomb explosions and earthquake. It can also be used as surveillance for military and rescuing purposes. It is for safety and to protect the lives of the people saving them from danger. It is more ideal to use BERNA instead of drones because drones cannot perform different actions when disposing bomb and in times of earthquake. The government should use BERNA in performing bomb disposal and rescuing to protect and save the lives of many people.
