Early Warning Firefighting System Using Internet of Things

Firefighting systems are the most important issue in industrial large corporations and specifically for insurance companies. Any delay in firefighting systems will cause huge economical damages and human casualties. The main objective of this study is to design an early warning firefighting system based on internet of things by monitoring and detecting early signs of fire by using various types of sensors: temperature, humidity, flame, and gas. When any of these sensors’ reading reaches its threshold value, a warning alarm is generated and the system sends a notification email and text message to the user phone and switches off the main power system. But, if unfortunately the fire is started, the system immediately takes the required action by using suitable actuator (valve extinguisher) according to the sensor type. All of these data are uploaded to the monitoring web page and also an android application is provided for the insurance company to monitor its clients industry or corporation. For communication Ethernet shield cable is used for high internet connectivity to avoid interferences. The system was tested and the result are illustrated.
