Chapter 1: Introduction
1.1 Background
In recent years, the increasing number of fire-related incidents and accidental gas leaks
has become a significant concern in both developed and developing nations. These
hazards can cause severe damage to human life, infrastructure, and the environment.
Traditional systems consist of smoke detectors and alarms, but they lack remote
monitoring capabilities.
1.2 Problem Statement
The primary issue is the lack of an affordable, real-time alert system that can detect gas
leaks or fire and immediately notify users locally and remotely, enabling timely response
and prevention of catastrophic outcomes.
1.3 Objectives
1. Early detection of fire and gas hazards.
2. Immediate local alerts via buzzer and LED.
3. Remote notifications via SMS and IoT dashboard.
4. Cost-effective and scalable design.
1.4 Scope of the Project
This project covers prototype development including sensor integration, microcontroller
programming, and alert mechanisms. It does not include automatic suppression systems.
Chapter 2: Literature Survey
2.1 Existing Systems
Review of traditional and IoT-based fire and gas detection systems, their features and
limitations.
2.2 Comparative Analysis
Comparison of systems based on cost, functionality, remote monitoring, and scalability.
2.3 Research Gaps
Identification of unmet needs: integration of low-cost sensors with remote alerting and
real-time data logging.
