SISTEM PANIC BUTTON UNTUK KONDISI DARURAT WARGA DESA BERBASIS INTERNET OF THINGS
INTERNET OF THINGS BASED PANIC BUTTON SYSTEM FOR VILLAGE RESIDENTS' EMERGENCY CONDITIONS
Keamanan dan keselamatan masyarakat desa sering terancam oleh kondisi darurat seperti bencana alam, kebakaran, tindak kriminal, maupun keadaan medis yang membutuhkan respons cepat. Keterbatasan akses komunikasi menjadi salah satu kendala dalam penyampaian informasi darurat secara efektif. Penelitian ini bertujuan merancang dan membangun sistem Panic Button berbasis Internet of Things (IoT) untuk membantu warga desa dalam melaporkan keadaan darurat dengan cepat dan efisien. Sistem dikembangkan menggunakan mikrokontroler ESP32, sensor suhu DS18B20, DFPlayer Mini sebagai media peringatan suara, serta aplikasi berbasis web untuk pengiriman notifikasi darurat. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah eksperimen dengan pendekatan kuantitatif melalui pengujian fungsionalitas perangkat keras dan perangkat lunak, pengukuran waktu respons, keandalan sistem, serta observasi kemudahan penggunaan oleh warga. Hasil pengujian menunjukkan bahwa sistem mampu merespons laporan darurat dalam waktu rata-rata 1–2 detik pada jaringan WiFi desa dan 3–8 detik pada jaringan seluler. Tingkat keberhasilan pengiriman notifikasi mencapai 100% pada WiFi desa dan Provider A, serta 90% pada Provider B. Selain itu, warga dapat menggunakan aplikasi dengan mudah tanpa pelatihan khusus, serta memahami notifikasi darurat yang ditampilkan. Dengan demikian, sistem Panic Button berbasis IoT ini terbukti dapat meningkatkan keamanan dan mempercepat komunikasi dalam kondisi darurat di lingkungan desa.

The safety and security of rural communities are often threatened by emergency conditions such as natural disasters, fires, criminal acts, and medical incidents that require a fast response. Limited communication access is one of the main obstacles in delivering emergency information effectively. This research aims to design and develop a Panic Button system based on the Internet of Things (IoT) to assist villagers in reporting emergencies quickly and efficiently. The system was developed using an ESP32 microcontroller, a DS18B20 temperature sensor, a DFPlayer Mini as an audio alert device, and a web-based application for emergency notification delivery. The research employed an experimental method with a quantitative approach, including hardware and software functionality testing, response time measurement, system reliability analysis, and usability observation by villagers. The test results show that the system can respond to emergency reports within an average of 1–2 seconds on the village WiFi network and 3–8 seconds on mobile networks. The success rate of notification delivery reached 100% on the village WiFi and Provider A, and 90% on Provider B. Furthermore, villagers were able to operate the application easily without special training and clearly understood the emergency notifications provided. Therefore, the IoT-based Panic Button system has been proven to enhance safety and accelerate communication in emergency conditions within rural communities.
