This is Puff, Magic Fire Fighting Dragon

Puff consists of:

  • Arduino
  • chassis and two motors
  • servo moving its head
  • motor with a fan
  • two photoresistors as fire detectors

Here we have an example of panic mode, when it didn’t succeeded to quench the fire:

Puff is a developmental project, you can monitor the progress on Let’s Make Robots.
