Abstract

Indoor air quality is a growing concern, particularly the concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2) and other hazardous gases, which can pose significant health risks and diminish safety. Recognizing the critical nature of this issue, this paper details the development of an advanced environmental monitoring system designed to detect elevated levels of CO2 and other potentially dangerous gases. Our approach synthesizes various research methods, including requirement gathering, literature review, and user surveys, to inform system conception and implementation. The resulting device integrates highly sensitive sensors for CO2, CO, LPG, smoke, and additional hazardous gas detection, all governed by a microcontroller at the system's nucleus. This technology is augmented by a comprehensive alarm strategy—encompassing audio alerts, text messages, emails, and mobile application notifications—together with a user-friendly display interface. The system is also endowed with Internet of Things (IoT) capabilities, offering users the convenience of real-time monitoring and control through a web dashboard and a dedicated mobile application. Moreover, the device boasts the ability to monitor environmental parameters like temperature and humidity, providing a holistic view of indoor air conditions. Key results indicate a significant improvement in detection response time and accuracy, with the enhanced communication features facilitating swift and effective alerts to users. These advancements mark a stride toward safer indoor environments, potentially mitigating the risks associated with poor air quality.
