Zigbee Based Hazard Detecting Helmet

Abstract

Abstract A Baneful gas detector, a volatile event indicator with several other features is developed, which is a smart helmet. Here, some of the life-threatening events are being overcome by using this helmet. Those hazardous events are impact of something heavy to the workers head, dangerous gas, and deportation of helmet. These events are identified by using accelerator for finding the impact, gas sensor for finding the harmful gas and Infrared Sensor for finding the removal of helmet. Once the environmental conditions are being checked by these sensors, the information is processed by the PIC micro-controller and is sent to the receiver node through the wireless sensor network. This wireless transmission is done by using Zigbee technology. The obtained data at the receiver node is then processed through the ARM processor for performing the alert process in both the receiver end and the transmitter end i.e., the user. The development of smart helmet presents the solutions to the issues faced.
