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…

Hi HN, I’m part of the team building Sniphi. Sniphi is a modular digital nose that uses gas sensors and machine-learning models to convert volatile organic compound (VOC) data into a machine-readable signal that can be integrated into existing QA, monitoring, or automation systems. The system is currently in an R&D phase, but already exists as working hardware and software and is being tested in real environments. The project grew out of earlier collaborations with university researchers on gas sensors and odor classification. What we kept running into was a gap between promising lab results…
