i-Detect: IoT Voice-Activated Home Automation with Smoke and Fire Detection and Mitigation System
#InternetOfThings #HomeAutomation #IoT
In the 4th Industrial Revolution, the Internet of Things (IoT) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) contributed to the pivotal technological advancement that connected the world better. This paved the way for the latest innovation in voice-controlled home automation for gas leakage and fire detection. At the present time, there are innovations like smart devices such as smart lights and switches that can be integrated directly into existing boards. However, these systems are expensive and difficult to modify according to the user’s needs. In addition, there are no existing projects that maximize the potential of ESP32. Some people only use this device for a specific purpose such as gas leakage detection, smart lighting, fire detection, and fire emergency response system.
In response to the aforementioned need for a cheaper and user-friendly technological detection, i-Detect was designed. This system fully utilizes ESP32’s analog and digital capabilities. It also integrates the IoT board’s SMS notification and data visualization. These features chosen provide an inclusive safety measure that can benefit business and residential owners as well as the differently-able clientele. In this project, the smart lighting and switching system are connected to other devices such as lights and appliances that coordinate with one another based on the dedicated detection algorithm. For the smoke and fire detection and mitigation system, the recipient can monitor the values of smoke and fire sensors and the mitigating aspect automatically executes depending on the condition it will cover. The visualization and notification make it more interesting than any other technology.
