Abstract

The emergence of Internet of Things (IoT) has undoubtedly transformed safety, automation, and monitoring systems across various sectors, particularly in smart home environments. This study presents the design and implementation of an Internet of Things (IoT)-based real-time kitchen monitoring and automation system aimed at enhancing safety, efficiency, and intelligent control within kitchen environments. The system was developed to address the limitations of manual monitoring processes, which are often labor-intensive, error-prone, and unreliable in emergency situations. The system integrates multiple sensors to enable real-time alerts and automated responses. Wireless communication is achieved through a Wi-Fi network connected to the Blynk IoT platform, allowing remote monitoring via smartphones and laptops. Upon detection of hazardous conditions such as gas leakage, fire outbreak, abnormal temperature levels, motion intrusion, or low water levels, the system triggers local alarms and transmits notifications to users through the IoT dashboard. Sensor fusion techniques were applied to enhance data accuracy and reduce false alarms. Experimental evaluation was conducted under simulated real-world kitchen scenarios to assess responsiveness, accuracy, and reliability. The results demonstrated an overall system accuracy of 91.8%, with high detection reliability across all integrated sensors and minimal false positives.
