Ozone detection is an important aspect of testing both outdoor and indoor air quality; but how can it be made more accessible to the population in general? EVERYAWARE Project The solution, according to the EU’s EVERYAWARE project, could be to enable ozone detection via Bluetooth, with portable sensors wirelessly connected to people’s smartphones. A team […]
Oxygen sensors have an important role to play in treating head injuries, as leaving the brain starved of oxygen for any length of time can have catastrophic consequences. But alongside oxygen sensors, xenon detectors could also become an important component in assessing indoor air quality in facilities where people who have suffered head injuries are […]
Indoor air quality sensors could be an important tool in many European public buildings in the years to come, as part of EU-wide efforts to monitor air pollution. Tracking air pollution hot spots The PASODOBLE project has developed a system called Myair, which can provide information about air quality to hospitals and doctors, environmental officials […]
Optical bandpass filters can allow static and dynamic imaging of viscous materials using a technique similar to that already used in the detection of some cancers, according to researchers. Early detection of abnormalities Tissue abnormalities such as malignant lymph nodes in the breast can be detected using optical bandpass filters to create three views of […]
