Abstract :
One of the foremost predicament with industrial sector, residential premises and gas powered (CNG) vehicles like bus, cars is gas leakage. To detect the gas leakage and to cease it by human endeavour is an inconvenient problem. Hence, a Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) system-automatic gas leakage detector is essential for apprising the premises and termination of the leakage. We coalesce the concepts of Internet of Things (IoT) and Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) for the autonomous wireless gas detection. The propounded project is endeavoured to achieve the gas leakage detection by developing a prototype that constantly monitors the gas leakage with the help of the electronic Gas sensing unit having high sensitivity for detecting LPG leak, Butane leak, Methane leak or any such petroleum based gases. The embedded system is controlled by the controller, an electronic prototyping platform/board based on Atmega AVR Microcontroller Atmega328P. In the advent of gas leakage, the user is sent text message alerts via the WSN communication standard IEEE 802.15.4. The user gets notified through the Wi-Fi Module which establishes a wireless Internet connectivity between the networks in the system. Also, the system has a vigilant sound alarm which produces high pitch beeping upon gas leak and stops the alarm once gas leak is under control. A LCD is provided to display the status, properties, run time and functions of the system.
