HygieneL Indoor Air Monitoring System

HygieneL Indoor Air Monitoring System

HygieneL Indoor Air Monitoring System is an innovative digital environmental monitoring solution designed to address indoor air quality concerns in buildings and campus environments. This sophisticated system combines advanced sensor technology with intelligent data analysis to provide comprehensive monitoring of indoor environmental quality parameters. The system features a distinctive shell-like sensor node housing that contains an array of specialized sensors capable of detecting Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), carbon dioxide (CO2), relative humidity (RH), and temperature. Utilizing Xbee wireless technology and Arduino-based architecture, the system operates with minimal power consumption while maintaining continuous monitoring capabilities. The design incorporates a unique approach to bacterial detection through organic gas sensing, employing TGS-series sensors and Support Vector Machine (SVM) methodology for accurate classification of indoor hygiene levels. The system's visualization interface enables building administrators to monitor real-time hygiene status across multiple locations, making it particularly valuable for large-scale facilities management. Measuring 120mm x 120mm x 30mm in its production form, this Bronze A' Design Award-winning innovation in the Digital and Electronic Device Design category represents a significant advancement in indoor environmental monitoring technology. The system's development was driven by the recognition that people spend approximately 90% of their time indoors, where air quality can be significantly worse than outdoor conditions, potentially leading to sick-building syndrome and various respiratory ailments. Through its comprehensive monitoring capabilities and data-driven approach, the system provides an effective solution for maintaining optimal indoor air quality and preventing health-related issues in built environments.
