This paper aims to develop a multi-purpose surveillance robot to perform surveillance activities in industrial areas, militarized war zones or radioactive field areas with the objective of analyzing, governing and protecting the areas from unwanted threats. The use of robots and their role in our day-to-day life has been rapidly increasing since the day they were introduced to the world, further reducing the errors and life risk to humans. The objective is to design and develop an Internet of Things (IoT) based autonomous multi-purpose surveillance robot at a low cost that will roam around freely and give live updates about their surroundings by broadcasting video and information through the sensors installed. The sensors collect the data from the surroundings and send it to the Arduino microcontroller which can be seen by the user any time. This technology is controlled by the user remotely through any device such as mobile phone, tablet or laptop with the help of IoT based services. The entire project is built and monitored by wireless platform to minimalize the use of wire and help it work smoothly in remote places. Further improvements and advancements in this project can help in reducing life risk of valuable soldiers or identification of any hostage in unknown places.
