24 alternatives to Air Lab – A portable and open air quality measuring device
Hi HN! I’ve been working on an air quality measuring device called Air Lab for the past three years. It measures CO2, temperature, relative humidity, air pollutants (VOC, NOx), and atmospheric pressure. You can log and analyze the data directly on the device — no smartphone or laptop needed. To better show what the device can do and how it feels like, I spent the past week developing a web-based simulator using Emscripten. It runs the stock firmware with most features available except for networking. Check it out and let me know what you think! The firmware will be open-source and available…

A comprehensive indoor air quality monitoring system built with ESP32-C3 Super Mini and multiple environmental sensors. This project helps you monitor CO2, temperature, humidity, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), nitrogen oxides (NOx), and particulate matter (PM1.0, PM2.5, PM10) to maintain healthy air quality in your home or office.

In the cold season we tend to keep the windows closed. The air gets "stale": humidity often rises above 60 %, which can harm our wellbeing and promote mould. At the same time the CO₂ level in the air increases, which impacts our ability to concentrate. So I built a room air monitor that stays unobtrusive as long as everything is in the green zone, but becomes deliberately noticeable once thresholds are exceeded. For my personal love of statistics I also visualise the measurements in a clear dashboard.
