IoT based Smart Security Helmet for Miner’s Safety

In the coal mining industry, there are several incidents happening and safety is the major issue. Therefore a wireless network connection is focused in this paper which provides real time data to alert the officials about the accident to take necessary actions. Falling rubble on the workers is the leading cause of accidents in the mining industry, so to decrease this we chose an IoT made helmet project as an attempt to help this industry. But, among all these industries, the mining industry is backward among all. So, to bring new inventions within the IoT and the Mining Industry we came up with the concept of SMART HELMETS. This helmet is the life guard for the workers who work deep inside the mines. This prototype consists of ESP8266, accelerometer sensor, gas sensor and a buzzer that can detect the different hazards in the mines.
