In any indoor environment, many pollutants can be present. These contaminants, released by plastic objects, varnishes and paints, cleaning products, clothes, etc, can have harmful effects for the human health, especially in case of long-term exposure.
\nIn this context, HALADIN’S – HArdware Low-cost for Air quality Detection in INdoor spaces<\/b> can be a useful control tool.
\nHALADIN’s is made of a set of sensors for monitoring air quality and comfort in the indoor environment and to provide an indicative assessment of the overall environmental air quality.
\nHALADIN’s measures the levels of VOCs – Volatile Organic Compounds – and Formaldehyde<\/b> and gives an indicative assessment of the environmental air quality, through three easy-to-read colored LEDs:
\n– Green: the indoor air is clean;
\n– Yellow: the indoor air shows a first level of warning;
\n– Red: the indoor air quality indicators are above alarm levels.<\/p>\n
The device, based on the open source Arduino platform<\/b>, can also continuously measure other physical parameters such as temperature, relative humidity, luminance.\u00a0The data collected by the sensors are sent to the system through a Wi-Fi connection at regular intervals and can be viewed in real time on line at www.iotnet.it<\/a>. Here, you can see both real-time values and historical data series. HALADIN’s is a project by CSI-Piemonte, developed by CSP-Innovazione nelle ICT.<\/p>\n Altay Scientific\u00a0 www.altayscientific.com<\/b><\/a> CSI – Piedmont <\/b>www.csi.it CSP – Innovation in ICT www.csp.it Press office – Altay Scientific Press Office – CSI Piemonte
\nHALADIN’s can be used in public places such as schools, libraries and offices<\/b> to provide a first screening on wide-ranging environmental quality of these indoor environments.<\/p>\n
