Introduction

Project aims to reduce noise pollution using IoT

Introduction
2

Problem Statement

  • Noise pollution causes health issues & disturbances
  • Manual monitoring is inefficient and inconsistent
  • Modified vehicle exhausts exceed permissible noise levels
  • Lack of automated systems for noise violation detection
Problem Statement
3

System Architecture

  • Microcontroller (Arduino/RPi) processes sound input
  • Sound sensor detects dB levels above threshold
  • Buzzer and OLED display provide instant alerts
  • IoT module sends data to cloud for monitoring
System Architecture
4

Key Components

  • Sound sensor module (LM393 based)
  • ESP8266 for WiFi connectivity
  • 0.96" OLED display for warnings
  • Active buzzer for audible alert
Key Components
5

Working Principle

  • Continuously monitors ambient sound levels
  • Compares readings with preset noise threshold
  • Triggers alerts when threshold is exceeded
  • Stores violation data with timestamp for analysis
Working Principle
6

Threshold Calibration

  • Adjustable for different locations (residential/commercial)
  • Set slightly above normal traffic noise levels
  • Complies with local noise pollution regulations
  • Can be modified via simple code adjustment
Threshold Calibration
7

Alert Mechanism

  • Buzzer sounds for 5-10 seconds upon violation
  • Display shows "NOISE VIOLATION DETECTED"
  • Multiple violations trigger escalated alerts
  • Optional SMS notification to authorities
Alert Mechanism
8

IoT Integration

  • Data logged to cloud platform (ThingSpeak/Blynk)
  • Enables remote monitoring of noise hotspots
  • Historical data for pattern analysis and reports
  • Potential integration with traffic management systems
IoT Integration
