Noise Sensor: Our noise sensor, a capacitive microphone, transforms sound waves into electrical signals through capacitance variation caused by sound-induced diaphragm movement. Sound waves alter the diaphragm-backplate distance, thereby changing the microphone’s capacitance.
Light Intensity Measurement: Light sensors utilising photoconductivity are typically constructed using semiconductor materials. When light falls over the surface area, it converts it generates an electrical current. This current can be further processed, amplified, and used for various applications, such as light intensity measurement.
UV Index Measurement: UV sensors based on photoconductivity are sensitive to specific UV wavelengths determined by the bandgap of the semiconductor material used. When UV light of a specific wavelength falls on the semiconductor material, it interacts with the electrons present in the material. The energy carried by the UV photons can be sufficient to excite electrons from the valence band to the conduction band, this change is converted to a small measurable current amplified to make the output signal.
Temperature Measurement: The Sensor is based on the principle of RTD, where the resistance of the temperature sensing element changes with temperature, which is measured to determine the temperature. This sensor relies on a bandgap temperature sensor to detect the temperature-induced voltage changes in the semiconductor material. The sensor then converts these voltage changes into a temperature value.
Humidity Measurement: Our sensor uses the capacitance variation principle. It features a thin-film capacitive polymer that absorbs moisture, altering the dielectric constant and capacitance with humidity changes. The capacitance varies with the humidity level, and the sensor converts this capacitance change into a humidity reading.
Pressure Measurement: Our sensor works using the piezoresistive principle. It includes a microscopic sensing element that deforms under applied pressure, causing a change in electrical resistance. This change, known as the piezoresistive effect, is measured to determine atmospheric pressure. The material’s resistance changes proportionally as the air pressure changes, allowing the sensor to convert the pressure into an electrical signal.
Rain Sensor: Our rain sensor works on the tipping bucket principle. Rainwater, guided by a 200 cm² funnel, fills a self-emptying POM bucket. Upon tipping due to rainfall accumulation, it activates reed switches and resets, ready for subsequent rainfall measurement.
Wind Sensor: It is based on the measurement principle of Time-of-Flight. The sensor consists of transducers in a pair that alternates between emitting and receiving ultrasonic pulses. The corresponding transducer on the opposite side receives the pulse emitted by one transducer. The flight time is determined by measuring the time it takes for the ultrasonic pulse to travel from one transducer to the other.
- Wind Speed: The difference in time-of-flight between the two pairs of transducers gives the speed of the wind along the corresponding axes.
- Wind Direction: The relative difference in time-of-flight between the vertical and horizontal pairs of transducers is used to determine the wind direction.
Air Quality Data Monitored by Weathercom is also accessible using the Air Quality Software. The platform has essential features such as
- Air Quality Data Overview
- Micro-analysis Dashboard
- Historical Data Analytics
- Air Quality Report
- Smart Alerts
- Historical Data-set Download
Air Quality Data is also accessible using secured HTTP/MQTT APIs. In addition, the data can be published on Public displays, Smart TVs, Websites (using widgets), and Mobile Apps using the APIS.
Therefore, by building conditional algorithms and logic on the real-time air-quality data, environmental automation is possible.
Environmental.Ai platform can also generate a Live Air-Quality Map using the Dense Air-quality data network.
