Abstract
A mobile robot is provided with a fluid conduit which is connected to an on board fluid-responsive turbine. An on board electric generator and/or hydraulic pump is connected to the mechanical output of the turbine such that power for the robot is generated when the turbine rotates due to the flow of fluid through the conduit. The fluid may then be expelled through a nozzle and used as an extinguishant, a propellant or a coolant.
