Abstract

The hazardous environments such as underground spaces (coal, salt, minerals mines), research laboratory or test centers are dangerous to work in, especially because of air quality, small and difficult to access spaces and in some cases highly explosion hazard due to instant events such as combination of explosive gases or substances. Environmental data acquisition and wireless communication prior to human access in these spaces or sometimes instead of human access, is life savings. The system we propose is low cost, handy, a real time data acquisition and duplex wireless data communication. The first module is mobile data acquisition robot equipped with camera and a network of sensors. It is remotely handled by a person’s hand equipped with the second module that consists of a gyroscope and accelerometer sending movements data and receiving video streaming related to space and environmental acquired data.
