Abstract—A smart helmet is created to save the miners from the hazardous situation. The miner workers working in the mine are unaware of the temperature and level of dangerous gases present there which can lead to critical health conditions. The helmet being used does not provide any safety against such fatal circumstances. So some innovation has to be added to the helmet to further safeguard the mine workers. Our project’s aim is to develop a smart helmet that could do the surveillance of the working environment of the miners using IOT. The helmet has wireless sensors network and GPS which will perform real time surveillance and early warnings on the detection of any potential threat. The sensed data will displayed on the LCD of the receiving end. Additionally, there is a RF transmitter and receiver affixed to alert at the receiver end.
