SMART HELMET FOR MINING INDUSTRY  SAFETY SYSTEM

OBJECTIVE

·        The objective of a smart helmet in the mining industry is to enhance safety, communication, and efficiency for miners. These helmets often incorporate features such as real-time Monitoring of vital signs, gas Detection, collision avoidance

APPARATUS REQUIRED

·        MSP430 Microcontroller

·        LCD Display

·        LED Indication

·        Buzzer

·        IR sensor

WORKING PROCESS

·        Sensors can detect harmful gases and assess environmental conditions like temperature and humidity to ensure safe working conditions.

·        Proximity sensors can alert miners about obstacles, machinery, or vehicles in their vicinity, preventing accidents

·        Accelerometers can detect sudden movements indicating a fall and send alerts to supervisors or fellow workers.

·        The helmet might monitor vital signs like heart rate and oxygen levels, providing early warnings of health issues.

·        Miners can trigger distress signals through the helmet, alerting others about emergencies.

ADVANTAGES

·        Real-time monitoring of environmental conditions, vital signs of workers, and potential hazards.

·        It can provide instant alerts for dangerous situations, improve communication among miners, enhance situational awareness, and contribute to better decision-making.

·        Additionally, data collected by the helmets can be analysed to identify patterns and trends, leading to improved safety protocols and overall risk reduction in mining operations.

DISADVANTAGES

·        Cost

·        Complexity

·        Dependency

·        Data Privacy
