REALIZING INTERNET OF THINGS USING ARDUINO, ESP8266 & IIS SERVER AND MYSQL DB FOR REAL-TIME MONITORING & CONTROLLING MULTIPLE FIRE ALARM SYSTEMS OVER A WIRELESS TCP/IP NETWORK By ABSTRACT The aim of the project is to realize the upcoming concept of Internet of Things where every “Thing” will be connected over a network for data acquisition. The acquired data is then utilized for making better decisions in real-time environment. Early detection of fire accidents is very crucial in preventing heavy casualty and damage in any industry. Present fire detection systems employ the method of raising alarm at the site of detection. A smart system can detect fire accident and also take an action or control the output of the system in real-time based on data acquired from sensors. The role of IoT is not just controlling the output of a system in real-time but to do the same for multiple systems by connecting them all to a centralized server over a network. Since all data is available in a centralized server, they can be monitored and controlled from remote locations.

ABIRAMI *** USHA ESWARAN **** INTRODUCTION The purpose of the Fire Service is to protect human life, our property and earth natural resources from fire and other emergencies. With the fluctuation in demands the fire service must equip with the best techniques, training regime equipment to meet public expectation. Mitigation preparedness and risk management have taken on new benefit with challenges facing the fire service today. Fast response cannot be achieved without good planning and preparedness. Wireless network can be the most useful way to collect various parameters and all the information needed by the environment such as industrial, shipboard, home, building, utilities and transportation system automation. But these sensor is resources constrained which include the battery life, communication bandwidth, CPU storage and capacity. Smart fire alarm system utilizes information on temperature and smoke detection at the site to initiate an action. This project aims to demonstrate a smart fire alarm system based on real-time temperature measurement. Two IoT End units connected to a server over a Wireless TCP/IP network for real-time monitoring & controlling realize the application of IoT in the smart fire alarm system. It is proposed to utilize Arduino prototyping board which is an open source design and needs programming (based on C++) for fabricating IoT end units. With programming, the Temperature sensors' (LM35) output is transferred through Wifi module (ESP8266) to a server. ESP8266 is the Wi-Fi module used to establish a wireless TCP/IP connection. A personal computer enabled with IIS services can be configured as a server with MySQL for database creation and PHP for front end development. This server can be used to log temperature value and then the logged data is analyzed to take a decision and control multiple smart fire alarm systems on real-time basis.
