Abstract: Robotics has become a rapidly growing science that will enter the life of all classes of people. A project that uses robotics and detection method to help people and rescuers at the time of disasters by detecting alive human beings is proposed. Natural calamities like Earthquakes, Tsunami and man-made disasters bomb explosion, building collapse often occur and they cannot be stopped. They produce a devastating effect and find no difference among human and material. Therefore at that time humans are buried among the detritus and it becomes impossible to detect them. Only a timely rescue can only save people, who are buried and wounded. Detection by rescue workers like policeman, fire fighters and medical services is time consuming because of the vast area that gets affected. Human rescuers must make quick decisions under stress and try to get victims to safety at their own risk. They need to find the location, status of victims and the stability of the structures as fast and early as possible so that medics and fire fighters can enter the disaster area and save the victims. This project proposes a mobile robotic vehicle that moves in the disaster prone area for detecting humans in such devastating environments and helps to identify the victims during the rescue operations
