Abstract

It is very challenging for the visually and hearing- impaired people to react properly in case of a fire than the none- visually and hearing impaired. In addition, there is a lack of the current emergency response systems in the market that cater to the needs of visually and hearing-impaired people. Most of the current methods are expensive and unreliable while 90% of visually and hearing-impaired people live in developing countries. Therefore, we proposed a new emergency system called The First Response Interactive Emergency System (FRIES). This system provides all the emergency needs of hearing and visually impaired individuals when they are awake as well as asleep in case of a fire, carbon monoxide, and natural gas leak. It will also notify the emergency personnel and their caregivers. The cost of this system is very affordable. Our system consists of a microcontroller, which will be connected to the LED lights, gas sensors, smoke sensors, fire detector, speaker module, WIFI module, vibrating motors, and LCD display. All sensor data is simultaneous transmitted between the microcontroller and sensors. Our promising results showed that this system can be a complete emergency detection solution to provide safety for the visually and hearing impaired.
