This an innovative solution, “Fire Extinguisher Tracker,” with the intention of improving fire safety measures within any workplaces or any organizations. The FET is a small device integrated with a light activation system that functions as an alarm during fire events. It effectively addresses the challenge of locating fire extinguishers quickly in an emergency, significantly reducing response time and enhancing overall safety within the premises. In the event of a fire, the prompt availability and accessibility of fire extinguishers play a crucial role in minimizing damage and ensuring the safety of individuals within an organization. However, due to various factors such as smoke, panic, or unfamiliarity with the premises, locating fire extinguishers can be challenging, leading to potential hazards or delays in response time. By integrating the tracker into existing fire extinguishers, individuals are guided directly to the nearest extinguisher, minimizing response time during fire incidents. Also, the FET is a low-cost device relative to the potential benefits it offers, allowing organizations to enhance safety measures without significant financial investment.
