Abstract

A factory safety monitoring system based on wireless sensor network, Zigbee, is proposed and constructed in the work. With the function of automatically monitoring of gas and smoke happening in factory and converting into image then to transmit to personal and phone call to security guiders for emergency treatment. The constructional system is able to authentically uplift the leveling of safety protection and significantly reduce the loss of human life and property. Consequently, one believes that this Zigbee-based system used for wireless messages transmission of abnormal cases coming in factory for safety monitoring can certainly provide a solution advangtable to achieve protection of lives and property.
