Advanced Robotic Surveillance for Urban Air Quality Safety

This paper presents a multifunctional quadruped robot, specifically engineered for comprehensive air quality monitoring and emergency assistance. Designed to navigate through urban environments, the robot autonomously collects and transmits real-time air quality data to a centralized database. This interdisciplinary paper integrates robotics, environmental science, and emergency response protocols to propose novel solutions for smart city infrastructure, public health, and disaster management. Specifically, this research highlights the critical role that autonomous systems play in monitoring environmental conditions and advancing safety protocols. This research leverages a comprehensive array of sensors including CO2 (MH-Z19), particle (SDS 011), GPS (ADA 746), DHT 22, MQ 9, and ADS 1115 converter, each meticulously implemented to ensure precise environmental data collection and analysis. Furthermore, the integration of cutting-edge technologies such as Robot Operating System (ROS), .NET MAUI, Python, and MariaDB establishes a robust framework for seamless operation, data processing, and secure storage within the quadruped robot system.
