It is characterized by its ease of use where it is for cooking and heating . But may be causing problems such as gas leak . There are many situations : Gas cylinders and valves accessories and fittings , tubes may be damaged and House members may leave gas without closing it when they are outside house. The idea of solution: System parts : Steps of system working: 1) User must download application Gas Remote Control (GRC) from (google play) 2) Register a new account in the application. 3) Enters the ID number of the device controlled gas in the application. 4) Opens and closes the gas remotely. Can add more than one gas cylinder and controlled remotely, in the event of a gas leak is close automatically. Target Users : Every family in the community, the system effectiveness is: Result Discussion Gas Remote Control has been developed and tested successfully: 1) 80% believe that the provided task is easy, and 20% see it as normal. 2) 90% have completed the test functions without the need for assistance and 10% have been helping them to perform certain tasks. 3)100% indicated that all the buttons are understandable and also the quality and consistency of the program is high. Stages of development the idea ConclusionandFutureWork We plan to add the following features to system: 1) System can send a message to the shop when the gas cylinder needs to be exchanged 2) User can know about gas amount from application 3) Put a camera to monitor what is happening inside the kitchen through mobile.
