Fascinating! This could have huge implications for realizing a 'smart city' infrastructure. Can't wait to see the potential real-world applications.

It's a great idea, but I'm concerned about the cost and scalability. How widespread can this become?

This is a valid concern, but as the tech evolves, it will likely become more affordable and efficient. We've seen similar trends with solar panels and wind turbines.

As someone who suffers from seasonal allergies, I see a real potential in this. Imagine having an app that could send you an alert to take your meds before your symptoms flare up!

Seems promising! However, is Atmotube 3 able to differentiate between various types of pollutants or is it only able to detect the overall AQI value?

It checks for a range of harmful gases, including PM 2.5 and VOC. Definitely more advanced than its predecessors.

I think that this technology should be incorporated in schools, parks, and other populated areas to create a better awareness of the surrounding air quality. We could potentially minimize pollution and its consequences.

If this materializes, it will definitely change how cities are designed built and managed. Interested to learn more about the tech stack and infrastructure needed for such monitoring.

Real-time pollution detection in combination with AI-based predictive models can prevent harmful exposure as well as develop measures not only for communities but also for individual users. exciting to follow!
