In this project, we will learn How to make an Alcohol Monitoring and Alarm System with AVR ATmega32 Microcontroller and LCD Display using Analog MQ-3 Alcohol Sensor. Here, we will display and monitor the concentration of alcohol using Analog MQ-3 Alcohol Sensor in 16X2 Alphanumeric LCD Display. Also, we will compare the concentration of alcohol with a threshold value continuously and when the concentration of alcohol is greater than the threshold value, the buzzer will start beeping.

Since, the output of the Analog MQ-3 Alcohol Sensor is analog in nature and these analog signals cannot be processed directly by the ATmega32 microcontroller. So, first this signal needs to be converted to digital value to be processed by the microcontroller. The conversion can be done with the help of ADC of the AVR ATmega32 microcontroller. After converting the analog signal to digital, the microcontroller will display the digital value of Analog MQ-3 Alcohol Sensor in the Alphanumeric LCD Display. Also, the ATmega32 microcontroller will compare the output of Analog MQ-3 Alcohol Sensor value with a threshold value(here the threshold value is 700) continuously and when the Analog MQ-3 Alcohol Sensor output value is greater than the threshold value, at that time the ATmega32 microcontroller will send signal to buzzer and the buzzer starts beeping.

Now, we will place cotton dipped in Alcohol/Spirit near Analog MQ-3 Alcohol Sensor and we will see the change in concentration of alcohol in the Alphanumeric LCD Display and Buzzer.
