Nowadays, air pollution is a big problem all over the world and in this article we will explore how to develop a low expensive homemade Air Quality monitor, based on a Raspberry Pi. If you are interested to understand more about air quality, please visit the “World Air Quality Index” Project.
· The BME680 sensor communicates with the Raspberry Pi over a bus called I2C (eye-squared-see), which is a serial communication bus that requires 2 wires. These two communication wires are referred to as serial clock (SCK) and serial data (SDA). In addition to the two communication wires, we also need to provide the sensor with power (, or 3V3) and ground. If you went for the solder …
· This device is intended to provide the user with a cost-efficient means of determining air quality. Our sensor focuses on the five components of the Environmental Protection Agency’s Air Quality Index: ozone, particulate matter, carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, and nitrous oxide. This device detects all of these pollutants …
The DS18B20 and DS18S20 represents a very simple sensor. These Raspberry Pi sensors are addressed via the so-called 1-wire bus. An advantage is that many different 1-wire components can be connected in series and read out by a single GPIO. However, these modules can not measure additional information such as humidity and / or air pressure. The ...
· Build the Raspberry Pi with the air quality sensor. Let’s start with the Raspberry Pi with the air quality sensor. The first thing we need is install the Raspberry Pi OS Lite. We just need the lite because we just use the terminal and we will connect using SSH. Now we are ready to attach the SD card to the Raspberry…
· Raspberry Pi with Air Quality Sensor. The way to collect data from the sensor is using Python. Let’s get started with setting up the Python script. First, we must install the right module. Pyserial is already installed as you can see below but adafruit-io needs installing. pip3 is a Python package installer that will download Python packages from the Internet. [email protected]:~ $ pwd /home/pi ...
· Monitor Air Pollution with a Raspberry Pi, a Particulate Matter sensor and IoT Central Background. Born of necessity, this project tracks the air quality over Sydney during the height of the Australian bush fires. I wanted to gauge when it was safe to go outside, or when it was better to close up the apartment and stay in for the day.

· A monitoring station for air quality based on the Raspberry Pi. pms5003. The lib/pms5003 is a Python script to read data from the PMS5003 particulate matter sensor by Plantower. It uses the serial line. It is rather complicated because it has all the following features: Handle sleep-down and awake of the sensor.

Born of necessity, this project tracked the air quality over Sydney during the height of the Australian bushfires. I wanted to gauge when it was safe to go outside, or when it was better to close up the apartment and stay in for the day. #JulyOT. This is part of the #JulyOT IoT Tech Community ...
· A new add-on, or 'hat', is available to attach to the Raspberry Pi computer to create a device that measures air quality, temperature, air pressure, humidity, light, and noise. The hat, dubbed...
· Tutorial: Air Quality on the Raspberry Pi with the HM3301 Introduction. The Laser Sensor (HM3301) is a next generation of laser dust detection sensor, which is used for continuous and real-time detection of dust in the air. It is an inexpensive, yet accurate, way of measuring air quality in terms of AQI, It is very different from the older versions of dust detectors and Different from ...
· In my previous post, I have explained how to connect a Grove Temperature and Humidity Sensor Pro with your Raspberry Pi and read data from it via this post, I’m going to show you how to use a Grove Air Quality Sensor (v ) with your Raspberry Pi.. Connecting the Grove Air Quality Sensor with the Grove Base Hat for Raspberry Pi
SENSLY HAT FOR THE RASPBERRY PI AIR QUALITY & GAS DETECTOR : Sensly is a portable pollution sensor capable of detecting the pollution levels in the air using its onboard gas sensors to collect information about the various gases present. This information can be fed directly to your smartphone for real-time pu…

I wanted to gauge when it was safe to go outside, or when it was better to close up the apartment and stay in for the day. Sydney, Dec 2019 Particulate matter readings ...
· The same air pollution sensor data which is displayed on the LCD is also communicated to the remote web server by means of onboard Wi-Fi of the Raspberry Pi board. This sensor data can then be monitored from a remote location using the IOT website. Applications, advantages and enhancements of the project. The IOT based air and sound pollution monitoring system using Raspberry Pi …
· Add a sensor and some Python 3 to your Raspberry Pi to keep tabs on your local air pollution, in the project taken from Hackspace magazine issue 21. Air is …
· Sensly will be able to detect benzene, carbon monoxide, formaldehyde, nitrogen dioxide, sulphur oxide, ammonia and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons; now that it has met its first stretch goal, it will also detect particulate matter such as pollen, smoke and mould spores, and backers will get this useful additional functionality for free.
· This is my second approach to the Internet of things, this time I built a weather station to be installed on the balcony. The first one, which was based also on the Raspberry Pi, was a programmable thermostat.. In addition to the classical weather parameters (temperature, pressure and humidity), I added a particulate matter sensor which roughly measures the air pollution.
· Raspberry Pi Model 3B+ (I don’t think you necessarily need a fancy model for this, but I went for the newest one). This would be included in the starter kit! Raspberry Pi SenseHat. Nova SDS011 Air Quality Sensor + USB connector. Short IDE Cable (to separate SenseHat and Pi - the temperature reading is wrong if the Pi is directly over the board)
· In the picture below, you can see how I plugged the sensor into the Pi’s USB port via the serial-to-USB adaptor (the adaptor came with the sensor). Raspberry Pi with Air Quality Sensor The way to collect data from the sensor is using Python. Let’s get started with setting up the Python script.
· In this work, to monitor the air pollution and to determine the air quality index, a gas sensor, MQ135 i s used. MQ135, MQ135, gas sensor operates at 5V voltage and 40 mA curr ent.
