MSens allows the integration of a wide range of sensors such as video-surveillance, outdoor air quality monitoring, outdoor noise monitoring among many other options.

​

It has GPS Geo-localization and autonomous communication which can be integrated in a LPWAN-AfE-EA meshed network and also communicate through GPRS/GSM/3G.

​

MSens AirQ is an MSens version with sensors capable of monitoring several variables that are related to outdoor air quality.

​

The air that we breathe influences population’s health and even more severely, other weakened groups which respiratory capacity is developing or debilitated (children, seniors, asthmatic and others).

​

The Air Quality Index (AQI) is a tool that allows:

• a simple and understandable way of evaluating the outdoor air quality;

• a simple and understandable way of evaluating the outdoor air quality;

• the operation in multiple types of scenarios such as villages, cities and industrial areas;

• for an information easily accessible by the public through direct access or through the media;

• to give an answer to legal obligations;

• broadcasting alerts to the sensible population groups in order to avoid health issues.

​

Target applications:

• Network based outdoor air quality monitoring.

• Sensor data that defines air quality is available online for public health reasons.

• Ability to monitor the air quality in certain delimited areas such as industrial areas and populated areas.

• Store the air quality history in a data base in order to be possible to detect potential issues.

​

Target users:

• Cities that need air quality data for environmental reasons in order to keep the city attractive for both people to live and also for investors.

• Groups/communities/universities/research centers that need to gather air quality data with the best possible cost/benefit.

• Health, rehabilitation and tourist centers that have the need to demonstrate to people that those complexes are inserted in a good quality natural environment.

• General population and people that are travelling that need to take into consideration their destination in order to avoid potential health issues.

​

Key Features:

MSens AirQ is equipped with several sensor that allow the measurement of the main parameters that define the outdoor air quality, namely:

• Humidity and temperature.

• Atmospheric pressure.

• Carbon monoxide and dioxide (CO and CO2).

• Thin particle concentration (PM 2,5/10).

• Nitrogen dioxide (NO2).

• Ozone (O3).

• Volatile organic compounds (VOC).

​

The estimated life time is between three to five years, depending on the pollution levels that deteriorate the sensors performance.
