Abstract: The emergence of new high-speed technology has been proven both a boon and bane for humankind. However, technology itself, if used efficiently, can be used to counteract the bane. Robotics is one such field which has undergone numerous developments to make human life easier. Natural calamity is one of the commonly known negative impacts of technology. High performance robots can be used to negate the adverse effects of disasters on human lives. In this paper, we propose to use a PC controller wireless robot for detecting human presence. The robot is embedded with PIR and ultrasonic sensors to detect the human presence and its exact location. Since, it is a wireless robot, it is mobile and can go through the devastated areas, which can be risky for humans to enter. This robotic vehicle can also be used to detect intruders/terrorists.
