This research investigates the development and testing of an Internet of Things (IoT)-based integrated ship safety system prototype designed for early detection of collision and fire hazards on Indonesian vessels. Maritime accidents continue causing significant casualties, property losses, and environmental damages despite existing safety regulations, highlighting critical gaps in real-time hazard detection and response capabilities. Through qualitative analysis involving maritime safety experts, ship operators, marine engineers, and regulatory officials, this study examines technical requirements, system architecture, integration approaches, and operational effectiveness of IoT-enabled safety monitoring. Results demonstrate that integrated sensor networks combined with intelligent data analytics can reduce collision risk detection time by 60-80% and fire hazard identification by 70-85% compared to conventional manual monitoring approaches. Key implementation challenges include sensor reliability in harsh marine environments, system integration complexity with existing vessel infrastructure, cybersecurity vulnerabilities, and crew competency development for technology-enhanced safety management. Findings reveal that IoT-based safety systems represent transformative advancement toward proactive hazard prevention rather than reactive incident response, supporting maritime digitalization objectives and Industry 4.0 integration. This research contributes to maritime safety literature by providing empirical evidence for IoT application feasibility in developing maritime contexts, offering practical implementation frameworks for digital safety system deployment
