I chose to make this project because...According to news recently, I found that many house fires happened due to unattended cooking stoves, leaking gas and electrical short circuits. This triggered me to create this project to prevent house fire from recurring in the house.
What I found difficult and how I worked it outThe difficulty I faced was to setup the smoke and flame sensors. These sensors were new to me and I have taken long time to study and learn how to set it up with micro:bit. Thanks to teacher and google, I managed to setup the sensors using sensor:bit and how to adjust right sensor’s sensitivity.
Next time, I would...I would add a feature that allow it to communicate with other smart alarms nearby in the event of a fire or smoke. When a house catches fire and the owner is not at home, the Smart Alarm can send an alert to nearby neighbors' houses via Telegram or VoIP call to inform them of the fire.
