Wildfire-Safety-Node-and-Autonomous-Gate-Lockdown-System-
An offline, autonomous edge node on Arduino Uno to mitigate wildfire risks when grids fail. It processes local thermal data (DHT22) and wind vectors to self-determine hazards. When safe limits breach, it bypasses internet limits to instantly engage acoustic alerts and activate dual servos to mechanically deploy entry barriers and safety signage.

Could you build this?
No This project requires custom physical hardware assembly, microcontroller sensor interfacing, calibrated environmental sensing, and electromechanical fail-safe deployment mechanisms.
What it would actually take: Building this requires embedded C++ development on microcontrollers (Arduino/ESP32), circuit design with DHT22 thermal sensors and anemometers, and servo-driven mechanical linkage engineering. The difficult parts include physical fail-safe mechanism design under extreme outdoor heat and reliable edge calibration for autonomous hazard decision-making without false positives.
