The hierarchy structure of security system for the
security robot is shown in Figure4. The security system
has four variety subsystems. There are fire detection,
intruder detection, power detection and environment
detection. We employ smoke sensor and flame sensor,
for fire detection.
There are two techniques for detection smoke:
