Rising sea levels, climate change and dependency on river basins or coastlines will increase frequency and probability of flooding in many regions of economic activity worldwide in coming decades. Existing rescue operations risks life’s of rescuers and doesn’t provide quick response. This paper presents the design of Autonomous Flood Rescue Robot. This is first of its kind - automated solution to search and rescue operations, which can be quickly transported hundreds of kilometers and deployed. Powered by electric powertrain this can be controlled easily and can go in up streams. The objective of this paper is to present design and develop: mechanical structure of the hull, analyze the flooding condition, powertrain and propulsion system, control systems, battery, electronics, Image recognition and AI systems. The motto behind this design is to provide cost-effective, minimal maintenance, safe operation and quick response for the rescue teams to increase their overall performance and efficiency.
