Wi-Fi Rover Based Mine Detector for Battle Field and Boundary

Abstract

Landmines pose a severe threat to soldiers and civilians in war zones and border areas, making manual detection extremely dangerous and time-consuming. This project proposes a Wi-Fi Rover Based Mine Detector designed to identify buried metallic and non-metallic mines in battlefield and boundary regions using sensor-based detection and wireless communication. The system employs a robotic rover equipped with a metal detector sensor, ultrasonic obstacle sensors, and a Wi-Fi module to provide real-time feedback to the control station. When a potential mine is detected, the system transmits alerts and location information wirelessly to the monitoring unit. This approach reduces human risk, improves detection accuracy, and allows remote operation, making it highly suitable for defense and security applications.
