Abstract: Firefighting is a hazardous and time-sensitive operation. Conventional fire suppression systems rely heavily on manual intervention, which can lead to delays and increased risks. To address this, we propose Safeguard: Intelligent Fire Extinguisher, an autonomous fire detection and suppression system using computer vision and an Arduino-based control mechanism. The system detects fire in real-time using image processing techniques, determines its precise location, and actuates a servo motorcontrolled water pump to extinguish the flames. This ensures faster response times, minimal water wastage, and reduced human involvement, making it suitable for industrial and hazardous environments.
