The goal of the EnviroSensor project is to create a platform to explore methods for crowd sourcing community air quality data. We are experimenting with open source sensor hardware and tools for interactive data visualization. Our team is currently working to tailor this device to equip children with information about the air pollution around them to make informed decisions that may help them prevent asthma attacks.
