Components
Raspberry Pi 4 Setup
- Central Unit: Raspberry Pi 4
- Power: Powered by a battery and solar panel.
- Connectivity: Built-in WiFi and an external WiFi antenna connected via USB. Additionally, a USB cellular modem with an external antenna.
- Sensors:
- Micro Meteorological Station.
- An anemometer to measure wind speed and wind direction. This anemometer is connected to an R011 to I2C converter which then connects to the Raspberry Pi.
- Smoke Detector
- Flame (IR) Detector
- Humiture Sensor for measuring humidity and temperature.
- Soil Moisture Measurement tool.
- Other Components:
- A GPIO (General-Purpose Input/Output) interface.
- A Puljuce power supply
Raspberry Pi Zero Setup
- Central Unit: Raspberry Pi Zero
- Power: Powered by a battery and solar panel.
- Connectivity: Built-in WiFi and an external WiFi antenna.
- Sensors:
- Fire Detector .
- Flame (IR) Detector
- Humiture Sensor.
- Other Components: A GPIO (General-Purpose Input/Output) interface
How it Works
Cloud Server
- Functions:
- Engages in constant measurement
- Notifies the associated app in the event of a fire
- Has the capability to predict wildfire growth.
- Connectivity:
- Communicates with the Meteorological Station and Network of Fire Detectors. This communication is facilitated through built-in wireless technology.
Meteorological Station
- Positioned to measure and send various meteorological data.
- Transmits information via cellular networks and built-in wireless to the Cloud Server.
Network of Fire Detectors
- Multiple fire detectors are spread out in an area.
- They form a mesh network, allowing them to scale and cover large regions.
- They possess no dependency on traditional infrastructure like power and WiFi, implying they’re self-sustained and can function in remote areas.
- These detectors relay fire-related information to the Cloud Server.
Fire Management App
- A mobile application depicted by a smartphone icon.
- Receives instant notifications, likely regarding fire detections or updates.
- The notifications are routed through the cellular network from the Cloud Server.
