DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF AN INDOOR AIR QUALITY MONITORING SYSTEM.

Abstract

In response to the growing demand for thermal comfort and increased awareness of indoor air quality, this project focuses on creating a robust indoor air monitoring system. Built on an Arduino-Uno microcontroller platform, the system integrates various sensors, including gas sensors, humidity and temperature sensors, to continuously monitor air quality. By ensuring a clean and safe environment for occupants, the system particularly benefits vulnerable groups such as the elderly and children. As technology rapidly evolves from old slide phones to today’s smartphones, tablet computers, and even artificial intelligence, it profoundly impacts our surroundings. We find ourselves increasingly reliant on these technological advancements, shaping our daily lives and interactions. However, these advancements have also led to the deterioration of our living environment, with air pollution emerging as a significant issue. Poor air quality has caused respiratory problems for many new-borns, and numerous smog-themed disaster films reflect the challenges the world must face. This project, titled “Design and Implementation of an Indoor Air Quality Monitoring System,” utilizes an Arduino, LCD, gas sensor, humidity and temperature sensor, servomotor, buzzer, and GSM module to automatically monitor and improve the air quality inside living spaces. The system is a carefully designed solution addressing the social issue of poor air quality in any room. By implementing this innovative approach, we aim to provide a clean and safe air flow, preventing diseases such as asthma and ensuring the health and well-being of all occupants, especially the elderly and children.
