  • Abstract
    Recent trends are to build tall buildings in big cities as a way out of the current housing overpopulation problem. These new structures unveil problems that if not addressed in time could cause catastrophes of unimaginable impact. One of those problems is the incidence of a fire threat happening upstairs in one of those buildings. Research solutions include implementation of multi-agent fire safety systems for fire threats in high rise buildings. Humans, agents, robots, machines and sensors communication model is used for indistinguishability of actors. This work discusses the implementation of the unmanned ground vehicles to spot the real location of the fire.
