The document describes a project to detect gaseous pollutants using an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). A team designed a quadcopter UAV equipped with a methane gas sensor to remotely detect gas leaks in hazardous areas. The quadcopter uses brushless motors, gyroscope, accelerometer and flight control board to fly and detect gases with the sensor. It can inspect areas safely that are otherwise inaccessible to humans and detect multiple gases at low operating cost for applications like factories, mines, and environmental monitoring.

- 2. 2 PRESENTATION STRUCTURE INTRODUCTION PROJECT IDEA DESIGN OF UAV ADVANTAGES APPLICATIONS
- 3. 3 GAS LEAK A gas leak is a non-expected release of gas that can create a potentially dangerous situation - either because the released gas is poisonous or because it can ignite and create an explosion.
- 4. 4 GAS LEAK… It is generally unsafe for human inspection at a site of gas leak. Especially if the environment is unsupportive like mines, caves and factory pipelines.
- 5. 5 PROJECT IDEA Gas Sensor + Robot = Safe solution for Gas Leak Detection
- 6. 6 DESIGN OF ROBOT Design Goals •Robot should be tiny . •Should be agile. •Should work regardless of terrain.
- 7. 7 DESIGN OF ROBOT… Quadcopter UAV is best suited as per our design goals
- 8. 8 DESIGN OF QUADCOPTER Components •Brushless DC Motors •Three Axis Electronic Gyro •Three Axis Electronic Accelerometer •RC Transmitter •Flight Control Board •Wireless Transmission Shield •Leakage Alarm
- 9. 9 WORKING OF QUAD COPTER YAW Opposite pair of motors spins in opposite directions Copter turns (Yaw) right or left by speeding up one pair and slowing the other pair of motors.
- 10. 10 WORKING OF QUAD COPTER… HORIZONTAL MOTION Accomplished by speeding up motors (increasing thrust) on one side and reducing it on the other.
- 11. 11 WORKING OF QUAD COPTER… ALTITUDE CONTROL Altitude control or change is accomplished by speeding up or slowing down all motors at the same time.
- 12. 12 WORKING OF QUAD COPTER… EXTENDED CONTROLS
- 13. 13 GAS SENSOR MQ-4 We plan to use methane sensor in our project. MQ-4 is sensitive to Methane, Butane and Propane. The type of sensor can be changed to detect various other gases.
- 15. 15 ADVANTAGES •Such a device can be remotely operated to check for toxic gases. •Risk is minimum. •Suitable of inspection in areas otherwise inaccessible to humans. •Adaptable for detection of multiple gases. •Low operating cost
- 16. 16 APPLICATIONS •Manholes and wells. •Mines. •Factories. •Environmental Control. •Home Safety. •Pollution Checking.
