IoT Based Smart Helmet for Coal Mining and Safety Monitoring System

Abstract

Energy production still depends heavily on the coal mining sector, but doing so comes with a number of occupational risks for miners, such as exposure to poisonous gases, cave-ins, and accidents. The IoT-based Smart Helmet for Coal Mine Workers is a creative solution that was developed and put into use in this research study. It has a number of sensors, including, temperature and humidity sensors, gas sensors for identifying dangerous substances, and other types. These sensors continually gather real-time data and send it via a wireless network to a centralised control system.

The design, features, advantages, and underlying IoT architecture of the Smart Helmet are all thoroughly covered in this research paper. With the help of this model, the coal mining sector will get one step closer to adopting safer and more environmentally friendly mining techniques.
