Abstract

Advancing technology brought the increase of Carbon Monoxide (CO) production that causes adverse effects to health. This project focuses on designing a CO detector with inquiry through SMS for people to be well aware of the CO presence. This was made possible by interfacing a microcontroller to the sensor and the mobile phone. The PIC16F877A was used as the microcontroller. The EcoSure (2e) was used as the sensor that can only detect Carbon Monoxide. As for the mobile phone, this functioned as the server from which inquiries from subscribers were received. This in turn, sends the data (CO levels) inquired by the subscribers. These data were stored in the mobile phone server’s SIM memory, in which the logging system was integrated. Simultaneously, these data were classified according to its concentration and were displayed in a color-coded alarm system.
