WEEK 5

TITLE : BACKGROUND AND PROBLEM STATEMENT

Background of Project:

The aim of this report is to describe about the design and progress of the project. Project title is “IoT based Industrial Monitoring and Safety System”. The project aims to prevent hazards in the industry. The main purpose is to prevent fires accident in the industry. The best way to avoid the accidents is to take the first step by detecting the source of the flame which is the gas leakage. This system also can detect a smoke and fire. Smoke detectors are regularly used in buildings, homes, airplanes, and factories. Additionally, this device is to track down the fire that has become ubiquitous. This can be a major disaster if safety procedures are not taken early.

When gas is detected, the exhaust fan automatically opens to release gas outside the affected area. When there is a fire detected, the water sprinkler will turn on. This will give immediate help to the situation. The prevention system can be manually controlled to activate or deactivate the system through applications in smartphones.

Problem Statement :

The current alarm system does not have the ability to alert owner when the owner is away from the industry. For example, when the premise was in a fire accident at the time of no one as midnight when all employees slept at home, they did not know that the premise was burning at that time. they will know when they get to the scene the next day. Next, as a person, they cannot detect the existence of natural gas as soon as the sensors do. Therefore, the use of gas sensing systems is indispensable for providing real-time monitoring of the gas system. Thus, this project can solve this problem as this project can detect the occurrence of natural gas as well as smoke and fire. Additionally, it is also capable of solving this problem with an automated preventive system.
