Improve indoor air quality with Arduino

Reading Time: 4 minutesWhen we think about air quality and pollution, it’s easy to conjure up images of smog-filled cities and power plants churning clouds of poison into the atmosphere. And while all this is still important, and has massive consequences for our health, it’s all too easy to overlook the air pollution that takes place within our […]

The Environmental Sense Mask monitors air quality in real-time

Reading Time: 2 minutesHazardous pollution in the form of excess CO2, nitrogen dioxide, microscopic particulates, and volatile organic compounds has become a growing concern, especially in developing countries where access to cleaner technologies might not be available or widely adopted. Krazye Karthik’s Environmental Sense Mask (ES-Mask) focuses on bringing attention to these harmful compounds by displaying ambient air quality measurements […]

Environmental monitoring of corporate offices with Arduino Pro

Reading Time: 7 minutesThe challenge The quality of the air we breathe has a direct impact on our health. Poor air quality can cause a variety of health problems, including respiratory infections, headaches, and fatigue. It can also aggravate existing conditions such as asthma and allergies. That’s why it’s so important to monitor the air quality in your […]

The Airio Explorer 1 is a Nano 33 IoT-based indoor gas monitor

Reading Time: 2 minutesThe environments we reside in can have massive effects on our health, as poor air quality, crowded spaces, or uncomfortable temperatures can all lead to certain illnesses. Of these metrics, Tindie seller AppliedSBC has focused on air quality since too much CO2 or too little oxygen quickly impact health with sometimes grave consequences. AppliedSBC’s Airio gas […]

Keep your surroundings safe and clean with building automation

Reading Time: 3 minutesWhether it’s a home, an office, a school, a restaurant, or something else, it’s always important to keep your indoor environment safe, clean, and pleasant to be inside. It’s also a good idea to keep track of the air quality and conditions around you, not just for safety but also to ensure your systems are […]

Remote indoor air quality monitoring with the Arduino Nicla Sense ME and Nano 33 IoT

Reading Time: 2 minutesArduino Team — May 26th, 2022 Most air quality-sensing devices integrate their sensors into the same enclosure as the display, which can make getting an accurate reading tough since the viewer is directly next to the unit and could potentially skew the values. This is why one element14 community member Enrique Albertos created his own portable […]

Tracking the harmful particulate pollution from wildfires intelligently

Reading Time: 2 minutesArduino Team — April 15th, 2022 As wildfires continue to get more prevalent throughout the world, new methods are required in order to track not just their flames which destroy forests and buildings, but also the vast quantities of fine particulate matter that gets thrown into the sky from the smoke. Fine particulate matter that […]
