Our system combats these challenges through the incorporation of current and practical sensors that can detect different gases on the fly. The incorporation of artificial intelligence (AI) enhances the efficiency of the detection by increasing precision and reducing operational costs such that the actions for system change arising from environmental variations are promptly and accurately undertaken.
[0030] This system integrates gas-sensing elements based on Micro Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS) with low power micro-controllers for enhanced sensitivity and power consumption.

[0031] The working principle is as follows:
- The current from the Solar panel is taken to the voltage regulator to make sure that it provides a stable voltage that is expected for charging the battery. Voltage regulator is then connected to the battery for charging purposes through which power supply to ESP32 is accomplished.
- To proper electrical connection the Ground (GND) pin of the MQ2 sensor is connected to the Ground (GND) pin of the ESP32 board.
- This helps avoid scenarios of grounds that can negatively impact the performance of your system.
- The power for the MQ2 sensor is provided by the Power (VCC) pin which should be connected to a stable power supply like a photovoltaic cell for good supply for voltage in this invention.
- For data transfer, please join the Digital Output of the MQ-2 sensor to the D35 pin on the ESP32 board.
- This lets signals and data be passed between the two.
- Last of all, connect the ESP32 board to a desktop or laptop in regard to observing the symptoms and rectification.
- Through these steps, the system can work well and interconnects to form more coherence.This mode is useful because the ESP32 microcontroller can collect data that can be further displayed in graphs on the ThingSpeak cloud in the desired format. output suitable for charging the battery. Voltage regulator is then linked to the battery for charging purposes through which power supply is given to ESP32.
- To ensure a secure electrical connection, the MQ-2 sensor's Ground (GND) pin is connected to the ESP32 board's Ground (GND) pin.
- This prevents any potential grounding issues that could affect system performance.
- The MQ-2 sensor's Power (VCC) pin should be connected to a reliable power source, such as a photovoltaic device, to ensure proper voltage for operation.
- For data transmission, connect the MQ-2 sensor's Digital Output (D0) pin to the ESP32 board's D35 pin.
- This allows signals and data to be communicated between the two.
- Finally, connect the ESP32 board to a desktop or laptop via USB for monitoring and troubleshooting.
- By following these steps, the system can function smoothly and consistently.
- The data collected by the ESP32 microcontroller can be represented in customizable graphs on the Thing Speak cloud for analysis.
