Abstract: Mining is a very risky job. Workers can be exposed to gas leaks, fire accidents, health problems, and tough working conditions. To make mining safer, an IoT-based smart helmet is introduced for worker protection. The helmet continuously checks important environmental and health conditions such as temperature, humidity, air quality, carbon dioxide gas, fire, vibration, and pulse rate. A microcontroller inside the helmet collects information from the sensors and keeps checking the miner’s condition at all times. When danger is detected, the system sends an alert at once. Nearby workers and the control room receive the alert and act quickly. The data is sent wirelessly to a monitoring station for continuous checking. This helps find danger early and respond fast. The smart helmet reduces accidents and keeps workers safe. It is a simple, low-cost, and reliable way to protect miners.
