Intelligent flame detection system with Micro:bit

The flame detection systems are specially designed to react quickly to any appearance of flame. When it comes to protecting areas where flammable products are present, the speed of reaction is crucial to protect the installations in a concept of total safety.

Purpose of this project:

In this project we will realize an intelligent fire detection system with the Micro: bit card connected to the Internet.

It mainly uses a KY-026 flame sensor.

When the flame sensor detects a flame, the Micro: bit card sends an alert email via WIFI.

Note: To connect the Micro: bit card to the Internet you can see this article:
