Circuit Documentation

Summary of the Circuit

This circuit integrates an Arduino UNO microcontroller with an A9G GSM/GPRS+GPS module and an MQ2 gas sensor. The Arduino UNO serves as the central processing unit, controlling the data flow and sensor integration. The A9G module provides GSM/GPRS communication and GPS functionality, while the MQ2 sensor is used for detecting various gases such as LPG, propane, methane, hydrogen, and smoke.
