INTRODUCTION
BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

In recent years, the importance of effective and dependable fire detection systems has increased

significantly. As fire incidents continue to pose significant hazards to lives and property, it has become

imperative to develop advanced technologies to ensure early detection and prompt response. The smoke

and fire detection system that integrates SMS is one such technology that has garnered considerable

attention. This system offers a comprehensive approach to fire detection and notification by integrating

microcontroller technology with smoke and fire sensors. The primary significance of this system lies in

its ability to detect smoke and fire hazards in a timely manner. With its sensors, the system can rapidly

detect the presence of smoke or fire, allowing for prompt response and mitigation. This capability is

essential for preventing the escalation of fire incidents, minimizing property loss, and saving lives. The

integration of SMS technology into this system provides an additional benefit. The system guarantees that

prompt action is taken in response to a detected fire hazard by sending instant text messages to relevant

authorities and individuals. This facilitates faster coordination of emergency services, increasing the

chances of effective firefighting and evacuation procedures. The microcontroller-based smoke and fire

detection system with SMS is designed to provide a dependable and effective solution for fire detection

and notification. Using microcontroller technology, the system can process data from multiple sensors,

analyze it in real-time, and initiate appropriate actions, such as sounding alarms, flashing LED lights, and

sending SMS notifications. The significance and purpose of the microcontroller-based smoke and fire

detection system with SMS is to improve fire safety measures by facilitating early detection, rapid

response, and efficient communication. Individuals and organizations can substantially reduce the risks

associated with fire incidents by implementing this system, thereby ensuring the safety of lives and

property.’

According to a publication by (Yara, 2023), the Philippine Bureau of Fire Protection (BFP)

recorded a total of more than 1,900 fires in the first three months of 2023. The current number is down

21% from the previous year's total is 2,520 incidents. However, it is important to note that despite this
decline, fires remain a significant threat to people's safety due to delays in adopting reforms and

implementing measures. In a recent publication by (Guzman, 2023), it was reported that the Bureau of

Fire Protection (BFP) recorded a decrease in the rate of fires in the country during the first months of

2023. However, number of deaths rates due to these fires increased. The death toll in the first months of

2023 rose to 124, surpassing the 87 reported the previous year. As published by (BFP, 2023), data from

the BFP's Public Information Service (PIS) shows an increase of 52.3% Property damage due to this

year's incident amounted to P1,435,516,408 compared to P942,300,007.04 last year. Based on the

investigation conducted by (Atienza, 2023), it was shown that smoking and unsupervised smoking are

the main factors contributing to fires. Additionally, a significant number of fires nationwide are caused

by sparks created by electrical arcs or unsafe connections. The presence of substantial statistical

information on fire incidence in the Philippines emphasizes the importance of fire and smoke detection

systems in minimizing the occurrence of fires and their associated consequences. Early detection of fires

from the fire detection system is important and necessary factor to protect and preserve human life as

well as valuable property. Implementing a fire detection system has the potential to significantly reduce

damage and optimize firefighting operations. Equipping a fire detection system is considered an

important first step in ensuring fire safety measures. (Olympia, 2021)

Microcontrollers are of crucial use in the advancement of fire detection systems. Microcontrollers

facilitate the timely and efficient detection and mitigation of fire dangers by incorporating sensors,

algorithms, and communication protocols to enable real-time monitoring, analysis, and action. According

to the Study Conducted by (Hery et. Al, 2022) The utilization of the Arduino microcontroller in the

development of a fire detection system holds significant advantages for homeowners. In the event that

there is a potential fire hazard within their residence, the homeowner will receive prompt notification via

the system. By implementing our early warning fire detection system, homes may be promptly alerted to

the presence of flames, hence mitigating the potential for greater fire incidents to transpire. The study

authors suggested integrating a smoke detection sensor with the capacity to detect gas concentrations over
a larger region in order to improve the overall capabilities of the detection system. According to the study

of (Suwarjono et. Al, 2021), the setup of an Arduino-based house fire detection system coupled with SMS

technology enables homeowners to promptly get information about fire incidents, facilitating timely

rescue efforts and mitigating potential damages and loss of life. When subjected to real-world testing, the

system performs as intended, achieving a success rate of ten out of ten tries in sending SMS messages and

activating the alarm. Therefore, if the experiment is conducted inside a comparable testing setting, it is

anticipated that the system will operate in accordance with the established parameters. Based on the

research conducted by (Izang, 2018), the Fire Alarm and Detection System integrated with SMS

functionality has been identified as a financially practical option with moderate coverage for the purpose

of fire detection, notification, and management. The suggested solution efficiently utilizes a well-known

technology (Arduino) and leverages the capabilities of SMS to accomplish its intended objective. This

system's functionality would result in cost savings, the provision of dependable services, and the ability

to promptly notify the nearest fire brigade. Consequently, it would effectively decrease, or maybe

eliminate, the loss of both human lives and property. According to the findings derived from the research

conducted by (Mahzan et. Al, 2018), it has been determined that the implementation of an Arduino-based

home fire alarm system is both practical and efficient in safeguarding residential properties. The system

that has been constructed is quite affordable when compared to other alarm systems now available on

the market. Additionally, it is user-friendly and can be easily implemented in homes. As concluded and

suggested in the study of (Yadav and Rani, 2020) In the development of the Arduino fire detection

system, it was determined that employing a combination of a temperature sensor and a smoke detector

yielded more suitable results compared to utilizing either sensor individually.

Although considerable advancements have been achieved in the study of fire and smoke

detection systems with SMS capabilities based on microcontrollers, there remains a visible research gap

that needs more investigation. While previous research has provided evidence supporting the efficacy and

dependability of these systems, more investigation and enhancement are required. Future investigations
should prioritize improving of the system's capacity to precisely identify and distinguish various

categories of flames and smoke, enhance the effectiveness and promptness of alert communications

through SMS, and tackle possible obstacles such as erroneous alarms and power use. Furthermore, a

thorough examination of the incorporation of new prototype models and cutting-edge technologies has

the potential to significantly augment the capabilities of the system. By solving the aforementioned

research gaps, it is possible to assure the advancement of microcontroller-based fire and smoke detection

systems that are more resilient and effective. These systems play a crucial role in enhancing the safety

and welfare of persons and properties.

With the presence of the study's rationale, significance, critical cases, previous investigations, and

research gap. We Researchers are motivated to further investigate the development of a Microcontroller-

Based Fire and Smoke Detection System with Text Message Notification.

THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK

Over the years, the number of human devices has increased according to (Banzi et al., 2005) The

Interaction Design Institute Ivrea in Ivrea, Italy, developed Arduino, a simple-to-use programmable
device for interactive art design projects. The software for Arduino, which was based on Wiring, was

created by (Mellis, 2005). The five people are regarded as the initial creators of Arduino. Gianluca

Martino and Tom Igoe soon joined the endeavor. They desired a tool that was straightforward, simple to

program, and easy to connect to numerous devices (such as relays, motors, and sensors). Students and

artists aren't typically recognized for having a lot of extra money; thus, it also needs to be reasonably

priced. According to (Alqourabah et Al.,2021), a smart fire detection system was proposed that

incorporates multiple integrated detectors such as heat, smoke, and flame sensors. A smart fire detection

system that incorporates multiple integrated detectors, including heat, smoke, and flame sensors, has been

proposed as an effective way to detect and prevent fires. The system is designed to detect potential fire

hazards early on, allowing for quick action to be taken to prevent the spread of fires and minimize

damage.

detection and response via the buzzer, underscoring its quick responsiveness to fire incidents. However,

the action time for text message notification, at 8.54 seconds, introduces a delay attributed to factors such

as signal connection. While the gas and fire detection times are notably prompt, the text message

notification latency suggests the need for optimization in the communication subsystem to enhance real-

time alerting. Overall, the system demonstrates swift detection and response in localized events, with

potential for further refinement to minimize notification delays in the text message delivery process.

The third problem that this study dealt with was to assess how far can the

“Microcontroller-Based Fire and Smoke Detection System with Text Message” detect cases of fire and

smoke in a facility.

 The interpretation of the smoke and fire detection system's performance indicates a range

limitation in its efficacy. The system effectively detects fire and smoke within a proximity of 0.3 meters,

showcasing its sensitivity in close proximity scenarios. However, a notable drop in detection capability is

observed beyond this range, specifically at distances of 0.6 and 1 meter, where the system fails to register

incidents. The utilization of a meter stick in this evaluation emphasizes the precision of the

measurements. This limited range effectiveness suggests that the system may be optimized for close-

range applications or may necessitate further refinement to enhance its detection capabilities at greater

distances. Further investigations and adjustments to the system parameters may be warranted to address

these limitations and ensure comprehensive fire and smoke detection across a broader spatial range.

integrating physical attributes into microcontroller-based fire and smoke detection systems. Emphasizing

the parallels with particle board manufacturing, these systems rely on various components for optimal

functionality. The inclusion of sensors, mirroring the raw materials in particle boards, plays a pivotal role

in defining crucial physical and mechanical characteristics essential for effectiveness. Parameters such as

compact design, durable casing, and visible indicators are deemed integral to the physical appearance of

these systems, facilitating seamless integration into both domestic and industrial settings. Much like

particle board properties depend on specific raw materials, the performance of fire and smoke detection

systems hinges on meticulous attention to detail, ensuring attributes like high-density composition,

 THE MODIFICATIONS MADE IN THE MICROCONTROLLER-BASED FIRE AND SMOKE

DETECTION SYSTEM WITH TEXT MESSAGE

The fifth problem that this study dealt with was determining the improvements in the post-test

prototype after the modifications made in the pre-test.

To enhance the physical appearance, durability, usability, and quality of the prototype, our

research team has made modifications from the pre-test to the post-test iteration. These adjustments

encompass alterations in size, materials, and component placements.

Regarding size, the initial prototype dimensions measured 6 inches in width, 6 inches in height,

and 10 inches in length, whereas the updated post-test prototype now features dimensions of 3 inches in

width, 3 inches in height, and 3 inches in length. This reduction in size was implemented to ensure the

prototype, designed for fire and smoke detection, remains compact and versatile enough to be positioned

anywhere within a building.

 In terms of materials, the pre-test prototype employed 3.50mm wood on all six sides to construct

the case, whereas the post-test version utilized 0.75mm wood on five sides of the case and 2mm acrylic

glass on the front side, allowing for the visibility of LED lights. This shift to thinner wood was intended

to reduce the overall weight of the prototype while preserving its durability and design.

Regarding component placement, the flame and smoke sensors were relocated closer to each

other in the post-test prototype to enhance the comprehensiveness of fire and smoke detection.

Additionally, the two buzzers were strategically positioned on either side of the case from the front,

optimizing their functionality in the prototype.
