FIRE ALARM

Aim

The aim of the project is to get the alert during a fire accident.

Problem statement

Fires can occur due to various reasons such as electrical faults, gas leaks, cooking accidents, smoking, and more. These incidents can lead to property damage, injuries, and even loss of life. In many cases, people may not be aware of the fire until it’s too late, making it difficult to evacuate safely and prevent further damage. A fire alarm can help detect fires early and alert occupants, giving them time to evacuate and contact emergency services before the situation becomes critical.

Material used

Input: Fire Sensor
Brain: TinkerSpace Brain Board
Output: Buzzer
Battery: Lithium-ion rechargeable batteryry

Component description
Fire sensor

The function of Fire Sensor is to detect the fire and send the signal to the Brain unit (TinkerSpace board).

Buzzer

The function of the buzzer is to serve as an audible alert when there is a fire. The Fire alarm triggers the buzzer to sound an alarm, indicating fire.

TinkerSpace Brain Board

TinkerSpace board acts as brain of this project, its function is to monitor Fire Sensor and control the Buzzer.

Battery

5V Lithium-Ion battery is used to power-up this project

Working description
Case – 1: When fire is detected, the fire sensor (input) turns ON and sends signal 1 to the TinkerSpace sensor board (brain). The sensor board turns ON the buzzer (output).
Case – 2: When no fire is detected, the fire sensor turns OFF. Hence the sensor board turns OFF the buzzer.
Fire sensor ON —> Buzzer ON
Fire sensor OFF —> Buzzer OFF
Circuit Design (DesignSpace)

Step 1: Open TCode App -> Create New project -> Open DesignSpace

Step 2: Connect the Fire sensor  to INPUT 2 of the Brain board.

Step 3: Connect Buzzer to Output 1 of the Brain Board.

Step 4: Connect supply and test project.
