In this project, we will learn about PC and Analog MQ-6 LPG & LNG Gas Sensor based Wireless LPG & LNG Gas Monitoring System with AVR ATmega32 Microcontroller and 7 Segment Display using Series 2 Zig Bee. Here, we will display and monitor the concentration of LPG & LNG Gas wirelessly from a PC/Laptop using Zig Bee and 4 multiplexed Common Anode 7-Segment Displays.

Since, the output of the Analog MQ-6 LPG & LNG Gas 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 send the digital value of Analog MQ-6 LPG & LNG Gas Sensor to the Zig Bee through USART communication protocol. This Zig Bee transmits the digital value of Analog MQ-6 LPG & LNG Gas Sensor wirelessly to another Zig Bee connected with the PC/Laptop. At the PC/Laptop end, Zig Bee receives the digital value of Analog MQ-6 LPG & LNG Gas Sensor and transmits that to the PC/Laptop through a USB cable. In the PC, the RealTerm Software receives the digital value of Analog MQ-6 LPG & LNG Gas Sensor and displays it. Apart from PC/Laptop, microcontroller will display the Analog MQ-6 LPG & LNG Gas Sensor value in 4 multiplexed Common Anode 7-Segment Displays. In this way, the concentration of LPG & LNG Gas is monitored from the PC/Laptop wirelessly and from 4 multiplexed Common Anode 7-Segment Displays.

Now, we will use any LPG or LNG Gas source near Analog MQ-6 LPG & LNG Gas Sensor and we will see the change in concentration of LPG & LNG Gas in PC and 7-Segment Displays.
