Air pollution has become a growing global health concern, especially in densely populated urban areas. Exposure to pollutants such as PM2.5, PM10, CO2, and TVOCs can have serious health impacts if not properly monitored. To address this challenge, the research team at Telkom University developed AirGradien, an innovative wearable system that monitors personal air quality and provides real-time data directly to its users.
With its compact size (5 cm x 6 cm x 3 cm), AirGradien is equipped with advanced sensors capable of measuring airborne particulates, harmful gases, temperature, and humidity around the user. The device is designed to support a healthy lifestyle for modern urban populations, particularly for city dwellers, field workers, and communities regularly exposed to higher air pollution risks.
AirGradien not only helps users understand their surrounding environment but also serves as an early prevention tool for maintaining respiratory health and overall quality of life. With its portability, practicality, and accuracy, AirGradien represents a tangible step toward a society that is more mindful of both the environment and personal health.
