Virtual Safety Engineering: Real-Time Fire and Smoke Monitoring
The Hazard Detection System is a safety-critical embedded solution engineered and simulated using Tinkercad. This project demonstrates the ability to design complex circuit architectures and program logic for multi-sensor environmental monitoring.
The system utilizes a "Prioritized Alert" model to ensure that environmental hazards are detected and reported with zero latency.
- Gas/Smoke Sensor: Calibrated to detect hazardous concentrations of smoke or gas.
- Flame Sensor: Programmed to identify fire signatures within the monitored radius.
- Acoustic Alerts: Integrated Piezo buzzer that triggers specific frequencies upon hazard confirmation.
- Visual Interface: LED-based status indicators (Green/Red) for immediate visual assessment.
- Multi-Sensor Integration: Simultaneous processing of smoke and flame data streams.
- Virtual Prototyping: Fully tested and validated within the Tinkercad environment to ensure logical accuracy before physical deployment.
- Automatic Thresholding: Custom logic to differentiate between minor fluctuations and actual hazards.
