An environment sensor with Humidity, Barometric Pressure, Temperature, and Gas (VOC) Sensor is a device that can measure various environmental factors in a given space. The humidity sensor can detect the moisture content in the air, which is useful for monitoring and controlling indoor air quality. The barometric pressure sensor measures atmospheric pressure, which is important for weather forecasting and monitoring air pressure changes. The temperature sensor measures the ambient temperature in the space and is helpful in regulating heating and cooling systems. The gas (VOC) sensor can detect volatile organic compounds in the air, such as carbon monoxide or methane, which can be harmful to human health. Together, these sensors provide a comprehensive picture of the environmental conditions in a given area and can help individuals and organizations take steps to improve air quality and promote healthy living conditions.
The primary role of BME680 temperature, humidity, barometric pressure, and gas (VOC) Sensor in indoor applications is to provide accurate and real-time measurements. This data is crucial for maintaining the desired air quality in large conference rooms and similar applications where there would be a large gathering in ensuring air quality, and preventing uncomfortable situations. Hence on periodic basis this data is uploaded to the cloud and made available to the responsible people on mobile using different Apps.
BME680 temperature, humidity, barometric pressure, and gas (VOC) Sensor with the help of HVAC system would try to regulate quality of air with air handling system. Yet there could be issues and equipment problems or wrongful settings. Based on the data received it is possible to regulate remotely using mobile phone using different apps.
On all abnormality push notifications are sent to cloud and it would be sent to concerned authorities for necessary corrective action. Despite the above if no action is taken and abnormal temperature, humidity, poor air quality continues, shutdown mechanisms will be triggered, minimizing potential risks and notifications will be sent to the users through cloud to the concerned.
