Smart Fire Alert
IoT fire detection with real-time smoke and flame sensing plus remote dashboard monitoring.
The Problem
A fire alarm that only screams in an empty room helps no one. Detection needs to reach a person, wherever they are, immediately.
The Solution
An ESP32 system with smoke and flame sensors that raises real-time alerts and streams status to a remote dashboard, so the warning travels with you.
Development
Sensor fusion for smoke and flame to reduce false positives, with an emergency workflow that escalates through remote notifications.
Challenges
The whole design lives or dies on trust — too many false alarms and people stop listening. Tuning sensitivity to be alert but not paranoid was the core work.
Outcome
Working prototype with live remote monitoring.
Lessons
For safety systems, a false alarm and a missed alarm are both failures. The right threshold is a design decision, not a default.
