Advanced Fire Alarm System (A-FAST) As a Tool for Early Fire Detection and Reliable Response Mechanism

Abstract

Fire responses have only been limited to sprinkler systems, and recent projects have been focused on IoT-based fire response systems. This project aimed to develop an advanced tool for fire safety that includes the detection of gas and flame coupled with an SMS and call function to notify homeowners and emergency services providers. This project used ten (10) components: Arduino MEGA 2560 Rev3, Breadboard, MB102 Power Supply Module, IR Flame Sensor, MQ7 Gas Sensor, GSM SIM900A, LED lights (green and red), Piezoelectric Buzzer, 16 x 2 LCD Display, and jumper wires. The project used Arduino MEGA 2560 Rev3 to collect data from the sensors connected to the board for proper functioning. The presence of gas and flame were detected with the help of the IR flame sensor and MQ7 gas sensor. The users were able to determine the effectivity of the sensors through the LEDs, the LCD, and the buzzer. These components all indicate the presence of gas or flame. The project also allowed respective contact numbers to be notified by the system using text and phone calls through the GSM SIM900A. Through the series of experimentations and implementation of the projects, findings revealed that the Advanced Fire Alarm System (A-FAST) as a Tool for Early Fire Detection and Reliable Responsible Mechanism was highly reliable, useful, and effective.
