LoRa WAN Based Smart Safety Helmet with Protection Mask for Miners

In today’s modern world, the demand for coal and the essential labor of coal miners persists, yet the inherent risks to their lives remain a pressing concern. An innovative solution emerges in the form of a smart helmet, an advanced iteration of the conventional headgear worn by miners. This intelligent helmet integrates vital features to enhance miners’ safety and well-being. It enables real-time monitoring of critical parameters such as air quality, atmospheric pressure, radiation levels, and physiological indicators like body temperature and overall health conditions. Additionally, the helmet incorporates a HEPA-filtered respiratory mask, effectively shielding miners from harmful airborne particles, including those responsible for the debilitating black lung disease. Leveraging LoRa wireless communication technology, the helmet securely transmits data to management desks, where it is further uploaded to cloud-based IoT networks, providing higher authorities with comprehensive insights into on-site conditions. The incorporation of a multi-layered filtration system within the mask underscores its efficacy in safeguarding miners’ respiratory health amidst the challenging mining environment. Furthermore, a Heads-Up Display discreetly integrated into the helmet’s visor offers miners real-time access to essential data and instructions without impeding their workflow, thus fostering a safer and more efficient work environment.
