Inventive Fire Detection utilizing Raspberry Pi for New Age Home of Smart Cities

摘要

Smart monitoring devices contain sensing module and communication module frameworks and are developed to sense the data from the environment and store the results in the web servers. They are aimed to respond in the initial stage of critical scenarios for notifying the users. Fire safety is a critical application for home safety to save people's lives. Fire detectors can alarm in initial phase based on characteristics such as combustion, flame, smoke or gas. Our aim is to notify the users on the detection of flame with the help of a flame sensor so that the person can take action accordingly. With the help of Internet of Things (IoT) paradigm, the fire detection system is developed using Raspberry-Pi that makes use of flame sensor and Google cloud-based messaging service (GCM) for sending an alert message to the users. Thus, the outcome of this device helps people in taking necessary precautions in the home welfare.
