Real-Time Gas Leakage Detection and Alert System Using ESP32 with MQ Sensor Integration
Year: 2026
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: This project focuses on the development of a simple, low-cost gas and fire detection system using an ESP32 micro-controller. The system integrates an MQ gas sensor to detect the presence of harmful gases in the surrounding environment. When gas is detected beyond a predefined threshold, the system displays the status on an LCD screen and activates a buzzer as a warning mechanism. The primary objective of this project is to enhance safety by providing early detection of hazardous gas leaks, especially in small-scale residential or industrial environments. The integration of real-time monitoring, alert systems, and microcontroller-based processing ensures efficient operation and reliability. This project also provides practical exposure to embedded systems, sensor integration, and safety monitoring applications, making it suitable for future smart safety solutions.
