Real-Time Air and Sound Pollution Monitoring System

Abstract

With the growing industry sectors, there is a huge increase in air pollution, and it is becoming a serious issue in the society, due to which most governments in the world have deployed many methodologies to monitor the daily air quality. Monitoring pollution levels is essential to ensure that people do not develop respiratory or pollution-related illnesses because, as a developing country like India, pollution can lead to environmental degradation. Monitoring and forecasting of air quality has also become an important issue to improve the quality of people's lives as many people have started to take advantage of this situation and build devices such as air purifiers and other end-user products with regards to providing comfort to users with diseases caused by pollution such as Lung Cancer, Stroke, Ischemic Heart Disease and etc. Air and sound pollution dashboard is a tool that helps people to visualize the data collected from sensors. In this research, a solution is provided to monitor the air and sound pollution levels in indoor environments by using wireless technology and Android-based application for upbringing a versatile dashboard. Air quality can be measured using relevant pollution indicators such as humidity level, temperature level, dust level, CO level, smoke level, etc. The main motive of the Pollution Monitoring System is to make it possible to monitor and check data points and insights to quality in a particular area through IoT using Arduino.
