🔥 Fire Detection System

A Reliable Fire Alarm System for Early Detection

by xilef
Introduction
Serious Risk
Fire accidents pose a serious risk to life and property.

Traditional Systems
Traditional fire alarms rely on smoke or heat sensors, which
may delay detection.

Our Solution
Our project uses a flame sensor to detect fire early by
sensing infrared (IR) radiation from flames.

Alert System
The system activates an alarm (buzzer & LED) and displays a
warning message on the Serial Monitor.
Objectives
Develop a fast, efficient, and low-cost fire detection system.

Detect flames using an infrared (IR) flame sensor.

Trigger buzzer and LED upon fire detection.

Display fire status on Serial Monitor for real-time monitoring.

Ensure early detection and quick response to fire hazards.


Components Used
Component Specification Function

Tiva C LaunchPad TM4C123GXL Controls the system

Flame Sensor IR-based Detects fire by


sensing IR radiation

Buzzer 5V Active Buzzer Provides sound alarm

LED 5mm Red LED Visual alert

Resistors 220Ω, 1kΩ Current limiting

Jumper Wires Male-to-Male Electrical connections

Power Supply 5V DC Powers the system


Working Principle
Detection Signal Processing
The flame sensor detects If a fire is present, the sensor
infrared radiation from fire. output goes LOW (0).

Alert System
Processing
Activates the buzzer (sound
alert), turns on the LED (visual The Tiva C microcontroller
alert), and displays "🔥 Fire processes the signal.
Detected!" on the Serial Monitor.

If no fire is detected, the system remains idle.


Circuit Diagram
Flame Sensor Connection
Flame Sensor Output → PA2 (Tiva C GPIO Pin)

Buzzer Connection
Buzzer → PA3

LED Connection
LED → PA4

Power Connection
Power Supply → 5V / 3.3V
Code Overview
Code Explanation:
#define FLAME_SENSOR_PIN 2 // Flame sensor connected to PA2
#define BUZZER_PIN 3 // Buzzer connected to PA3 1. Define pins for flame sensor, buzzer, and LED
#define LED_PIN 4 // LED connected to PA4
2. Initialize serial communication and set pin modes

3. Continuously read flame sensor state


void setup() {
Serial.begin(9600); 4. If flame detected (LOW signal), activate alerts
pinMode(FLAME_SENSOR_PIN, INPUT); 5. Otherwise, keep alerts off
pinMode(BUZZER_PIN, OUTPUT);
6. Add small delay between readings
pinMode(LED_PIN, OUTPUT);
}

void loop() {
int flameState = digitalRead(FLAME_SENSOR_PIN);
if (flameState == LOW) {
Serial.println("

🔥 Fire Detected!");
digitalWrite(BUZZER_PIN, HIGH);
digitalWrite(LED_PIN, HIGH);
} else {
Serial.println("
✅ No Fire Detected.");
digitalWrite(BUZZER_PIN, LOW);
digitalWrite(LED_PIN, LOW);
}
delay(500);
}
