Wireless Automated Fire Detection System on Utility Posts Using ATmega328P

Fire detection systems have greatly contributed to the safety of the people against fire incidents. However, most of these systems are not for outdoor residential areas. Outdoor residential areas need devices that would detect fire outbreaks with faster conveyance of alert from strategic locations in the involved areas to the nearest fire stations. Using temperature and ionization smoke sensors, GPS and GSM modules, ZigBee module and ATmega328P, a wireless automated fire detection system is proposed. This design will include the entire area covered by the proposed system by installing intelligent sensor nodes and servers in strategic locations of the affected area. The proposed system will be capable of detecting the presence of smoke and fire in the areas covered by the proposed system. An alert message is then sent to the proposed system's intended recipients by wireless means. The proposed system can also record and save information which include the location coordinates of fire in the area and the date of the fire incident. The gathered information are then saved in an Excel file for statistical record purposes.
