An apparatus is disclosed for extinguishing a stovetop fire over a stovetop having a first burner, the apparatus including a container detachably mountable to a microwave positioned above the stove top. A supply of fire suppressant material is retained within the container. A heat responsive actuator is disposed on the container. When the container is mounted to the microwave over the first burner, and the fire actuates the heat responsive actuator, at least a portion of the supply of fire suppressant material falls from the container toward the first burner.

In one implementation, a computer-implemented method includes receiving, at a computer system, information that indicates that a fire has been detected in a building and that a fire suppression system within the building has begun dousing the fire; monitoring sensor information from one or more sensors located within the building; determining, by the computer system and based on the sensor information, whether the fire has been extinguished; activating, in response to determining that the fire has been extinguished, a feature to turn off a water supply to the building, the feature being presented on a computing device for a user who is associated with the building; receiving, after activating the feature and from the computing device, a command to turn off the water supply; and transmitting, by the computer system, a control signal that causes an electromechanical device to close a water valve within the building.

A high temperature-resistant fire extinguishing robot, comprising: a high temperature-resistant robot chassis system and a high temperature-resistant turret system. The high temperature-resistant robot chassis system carries the high temperature-resistant turret system to perform movements and obstacle avoidance, provides the high temperature-resistant turret system with energy, and further comprises: a high temperature-resistant tract drive system, a thermal protection system, and a control and sensor system, the high temperature-resistant track drive system being arranged outside of the thermal protection system, and the control and sensor system being arranged within the thermal protection system. The high-temperature turret system performs a fire extinguishing and cooling operation with respect to the external environment and further comprises: a water cannon, a water cannon thermal protection structure, and a cooling circulation system, the water cannon and the cooling circulation system being arranged within the water cannon thermal protection structure. In a high temperature-resistant protected state, the water cannon thermal protection structure is closed; in a fire extinguishing work state, the water cannon thermal protection structure is opened, and the water canon perform a fire extinguishing operation.
