Mining comes under the most dangerous industries, with workers being exposed to risks at every moment in the form of hazardous gases, high heat, and accidents. This paper proposes a smart helmet which try to improve miners' safety through IoT based sensors with real-time monitoring. The device revolves around a NodeMCU-ESP8266 microcontroller, which accepts, processes data taken from sensor , such as the MQ2 which detect poisonous gases, the DHT11 for temperature and humidity, an da GPS module to check the miner's location. Sensor readings in real-time are displayed on a monitoring station, while a buzzer is utilized for audible alarms under dangerous situations and a buzzer is used for audible alarm during hazardous situations. In addition, an emergency pushbutton allows miners to report emergency messages or indicate device failure. By merging traditional method with IoT based monitoring, this solution takes mining safety to the good level helping to prevent accidents and respond quickly when emergencies happen.
