Project Idea
Design a smart gas leakage detection system that senses harmful gas presence in the environment and immediately triggers alerts through buzzer and SMS notifications. Using a gas sensor and GSM module, the system ensures early detection of gas leaks, preventing potential hazards. Ideal for kitchens, factories, and storage facilities, this project is perfect for learning about safety automation and sensor-based systems.
Project Description
This project is a gas leakage detection and alert system built using Arduino Uno and the MQ-2 gas sensor. When the sensor detects gas beyond a certain threshold, it activates a buzzer for immediate alert and sends an SMS using the SIM800L GSM module to a predefined mobile number. The system is powered by 18650 Li-Ion batteries and can be installed in kitchens, industries, or storage areas. It uses jumper wires and a breadboard for modularity and easy assembly. features like LEDs, LCD display, or relay control for automatic shutdown is also added.
