Air pollution Monitoring System

Inspiration

According to the World Heath Organization 4.2 millions of people death as a result of air pollution and 3.8 millions pleople death for household exposure to smoke from dirty cookstoves and fules. there are many harmful gases are present in the air like CO2,CO, smoke, alcohol, benzene and NH3. Millions of peoples live in areas where urban smog, particle pollution, and toxic pollutants pose serious health concerns. People exposed to high enough levels of certain air pollutants may experience: Irritation of the eyes, nose, and throat, Wheezing, coughing, chest tightness, and breathing difficulties, Worsening of existing lung and heart problems, such as asthma, Increased risk of heart attack In addition, long-term exposure to air pollution can cause cancer and damage to the immune, neurological

What it does

Monitor the Air Quality over a webserver using internet and will trigger a alarm when the air quality goes down beyond a certain level, means when there are sufficient amount of harmful gases are present in the air like CO2, smoke, alcohol, benzene and NH3.

How I built it

show the air quality in PPM on the LCD and as well as on android apps or a web page so that we can monitor it very easily.

Challenges I ran into

Data to create an air quality surface that displays the most accurate data for a location and time and that can be access from anywhere of the world

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

Peoples can monitor the pollution level from anywhere using your computer or mobile. We can install this system anywhere and can also trigger some device when pollution goes beyond some level, like we can switch on the Exhaust fan or can send alert SMS/mail to the user

What I learned

Air Pollution app check air quality index in surrounding in real time. Use this app to keep healthy and stay out of polluted areas

What's next for Air pollution Monitoring System

More Advance algorithm to increase accuracy
