Abstract :
Massive coal deposits, mostly in Sindh,
amounting to 184.623 billion tonnes, are present in
Pakistan. The market in our nation has been growing
quickly. As we all know, accidents are occurring
increasingly frequently in mines as a result of a lack of
qualified workers, the safety of miners cannot be
ensured, and coal manipulation is not possible. Men who
work in coal mining today must deal with environmental
restrictions. They are endangered by temperature,
carbon dioxide, and methane. We must thus guarantee
the security of the men and women who are now
working in coal mining. This study's objective is to offer
a communication- and security-based mining solution. In
the current world, coal mining plays a special role since
it has the ability to save the lives of coal miners by
inventing specific tools that will be very useful to the
workforce. People who operate in underground coal
mines are required to wear a variety of equipment,
including smart helmets that have sensors for gas
detectors, collision detectors and removers. Here, we
must set up our Smart Helmet's circuit to ensure the
security of the man who is currently working as a coal
miner. The release of harmful gases during mining
operations is only one example of how coal mining can
have a number of detrimental environmental effects. A
Wi-Fi-based monitoring system is built inside the helmet,
and it exchanges data with all of the trackers via Wi-Fi
networks. In order to avoid any potentially hazardous
situations, the Smart Helmet Indicator takes the
necessary safeguards and gives out an alarm through a
buzzer and Cloud Based Monitoring. ESP32 tracker
circuitry made by Arduino is used to collect the data. It
helps with worker location mapping.
