Problem Specification
Description:• A minimally invasive
reconnaissance robot that will be able to autonomously navigate and search a course for victims.
Features:• EMF detection and IR sensors to
locate victims and a hazard• LCD screen and speaker to notify
user of victim locations and conditions

Victims and the Hazard
Victim Specifications:• 8.9 cm diameter, 4.1 cm high• Emits a 33-kHz sinusoidal wave signal• Uses an LED to differentiate between: Dead, Alive,
or Unconscious• Up to three victims per room
Hazard Specifications:• 40 cm x 40 cm core• Emits a 44-kHz sinusoidal wave signal• Mounted underneath the floor of the course in
one of the four rooms
