Summary Carbon monoxide is a toxic gas and very difficult to be detected by people. In order to prevent people from Carbon monoxide poisoning‚ our team decided to design a window control based on gas sensor system for the Design Project. The project connects a Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Gas Sensor Alarm Detector to windows. The system monitors the Carbon monoxide concentration continuously using the Carbon monoxide detector. And then the signal generated by the Carbon monoxide detector will be
