Abstract

The earth is a resource for drinking water and fresh air, which comprises of many untapped elements that lies beneath. In India, one of the major problems in developing countries is that the water bodies are highly polluted and air is contaminated. Industrial facilities use a lot of chemical as raw materials. Some of them are very harmful and contribute to pollution. This results in the increasing in the emission of hazardous materials in air, water, as well as soil. Future prosperity and stability are determined by important natural resources that is air and water. So we have designed the Water and Air Monitoring System that will help the authorities in crisis management centers to discover and anticipate contamination of water and air. The system comprises of one master drone and four slave robots where the two of the slaves serve the purpose for detection of air pollution and the next two are used for water pollution.
