Gas pipeline leaks pose a significant safety hazard in various areas, requiring effective detection systems to mitigate them on time. This paper presents a novel solution that combines Internet of Things (IoT) technology with solar- powered robots equipped with cameras to detect gas pipe leaks, along with a microcontroller for sensor data processing and robotic monitoring of hazardous gases such as methane or LPG. Integrating gas comes with visible sensors, ensures continuous operation through solar panels, and facilitates seamless data transmission. It will adopt remote monitoring and real-time alerts using IoT systems that do not require external power sources. In addition, the addition of cameras allows for visual inspection of gas pipelines, allowing the system to detect leaks. The autonomous robot moves through the environment, examines gas lines, and sends information, including images, to a central server. This advanced approach enhances safety measures by enabling them to detect and respond to air leaks, effectively reducing potential hazards. The proposed system provides a practical, scalable, and environmentally friendly solution for gas pipeline cage detection in various environments.
