Real Time Tracking of Fire Fighters Using IOT Enabled Wireless Sensor Networks

Abstract

Fire accidents which are often happening, which causes serious problems to the society. Firefighters risks their own life in order to safeguard others. There is no proper mechanism to monitor the vital parameters of the firefighters during dangerous situations. The goal of the project is to save the firefighter life during fire accidents by continuously monitoring their vital body parameters using Internet of Things (IoT) enabled Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN). Suppose any firefighter goes to a critical condition it can be noticed by the commander  using  a PC. So a backup-team can be called from the fire department to assist the suffering firefighter. The parameters monitored during fire accident are temp, co2, co, blood pressure, body temp. All the above parameters are sensed using  the sensors that are placed in  the firefighter’s body. If  any parameter goes beyond the threshold range as mentioned, then it should be intimated to the firefighter using LTE modem.
