KITCHEN AUTOMATION USING INTERNET OF THINGS (IOT)

The kitchen is one of the important places in a house. Safety factor is the main aspect that must be taken into account during the activity in the kitchen. The existence of gas leakage, uncontrolled fire and excessive temperatures must be quickly identified and addressed. The purpose of this research is to make prototype of kitchen security system using Internet of Things. The system is designed using 4 types of sensors and Arduino UNO. DHT 11 sensor is used to monitor temperature and humidity, IR Flames sensor is used to detect fire, MQ-135 sensors are used to detect gas leakage, and PIR sensors are used to detect human activities in the kitchen. The sensors output are then connected to the Arduino which will control the relay. The relay acts as a fan switch in the event of a gas leak, uncontrolled fire and excessive temperature increase. Under these conditions, Arduino will also turn on the alarm and the led, and send information to the server. The results show that the system can work according to the desired specifications.
