Our project

We wanted to make something that helps people stay safe at home, so we created a micro:bit device that watches out for fire, gas, and intruders. If anything goes wrong, it shouts a warning, shows messages on the screen, and tells you to stay safe.

Our inspiration

We were inspired to make this project because many homes and small shops in our communities do not have safety alarms, and people only notice danger when it is too late. We wanted to create something simple that could warn families early and help keep everyone safe.
