Smart LPG Cylinder Monitoring System
Never Run Out Of Gas Without Warning.
The Problem
Traditional LPG Cylinders Give No Indication Of How Much Gas Remains Until It’s Too Late, Leading To Inconvenient And Sometimes Unsafe Situations For The Millions Of Households That Rely On LPG For Cooking.
What We Built
A Non-Invasive IoT-Based Monitoring System That Measures The LPG Volume Remaining Inside The Cylinder In Real Time Using An Ultrasonic Sensor, With No Physical Modification To The Cylinder Itself.
The System Continuously Tracks Gas Levels And Pushes The Data To Amazon AWS, Enabling Remote Monitoring From Anywhere. When Levels Drop Below A Defined Threshold, It Automatically Triggers An Alert, Notifying The User Before They Run Out.
Power Was A First-Class Design Constraint: The Device Is Optimized For Ultra-Low Power Consumption, So The Battery Lasts Up To Five Months On A Single Charge, Truly Set-And-Forget.
