Abstract: This project presents the design and implementation of an IoT-based system for early detection of Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) leaks in residential environments.Three functional prototypes were developed, integrating gas sensors, microcontrollers, actuators, and wireless modules.The system achieved 89.48% service availability and response times under 2 s from leak detection to data storage and visualization.Operating under a distributed architecture, it enables continuous monitoring, automatic shut-off, and real-time alerts.The novelty lies in the applied integration of electronics, embedded systems, and automation into an affordable, replicable solution, that enhances household safety, promotes preventive behavior, and supports the adoption of affordable, replicable technologies in vulnerable domestic settings.
