Sensors can save our future. To describe this in detail let us take an example of open Borewells. For irrigation purposes farmers dig borewells, after the result if there is no water present underground, farmers leave the borewells open. Due to leaving the borewells open there are so many accidents which occur like falling in the borewells. In one case in 2022 a boy named Rahul Sahu fell into the borewell was rescued after 104 hours long operation, and he was alive after the incident. To avoid these types of cases, Farmers or other people who dig borewells should close them after the bad result. So whoever digs borewells should close the borewells to avoid these types of accidents. So we have an innovative idea to avoid these types of accidents.
'Sensors' in our idea sensor play's a major role in saving a life. If there is an open borewell we will place the sensor 5m away from the borewell, so that if any person is crossing or passing through that area the sensor will trigger a sound which alerts the person about the borewell. In any case if a person fell into the open borewell then we can rescue him. We can place the sensor at the starting of the borewell. When the person falls into it the sensor will be alerted due to the physical sensor placed in the bore well and the
people who live nearby will get alerted that the person fell into an open borewell. If the person in the borewell is getting suffocated we can pass oxygen by pipes through the rescue team. The local government officer can track the triggered sound on the screen. To avoid this we can also do fencing around the open borewell and we can place a caution board. To avoid this whole situation, people who dig borewells should close them properly to avoid these accidents. And and and them properly to avoid these accidents.
HOW OUR IDEA WORKS:- In some undeveloped areas or villages if there is an open borewell, and a person who crosses the restricted area, then the alarm triggers to alert him. Suppose, If a child crosses the restricted area and falls into the open borewell then the alarm triggers to alert the people in the nearby locality area. It also alerts the government rescue team officers in that locality.
THE DIAGRAM:-
How this plan works:- When a person crosses or passes through the area where the open borewell, the proximity sensor will trigger the speaker which will give the alertment that the "borewell is beside you". If the person fell into the borewell the Falling object sensor will report to the rescue team, And nearby people can rescue the person. Without calling rescue team by using the rope and belt.
