I will develop a device capable of measuring CO2 Levels of the surrounding in addition to (Temperature, Humidity, TVOC, and Particulate Matter) then the device will push these Information to an online platform for monitoring.

Research and Motivation Crafting a project emerges as a straightforward endeavor when guided by a well-defined plan and meticulous breakdown. However, translating this simplicity into reality proves to be a nuanced challenge, commencing with the inception of an idea – a point where my creative journey encounters a stumbling block. Since the beginning of December 2023, I’ve embarked on a quest to crystallize a concept that resonates with my aspirations. Regrettably, my progress has been impeded by the persistent emergence of technical hurdles, casting shadows on the potential realization of my envisioned accomplishment.

Plan My plan focus on 5 different stages Stage 1 (Spiral 1) Collecting Data AIR -- O2 .-- Co2 .-- Other air particles Small to mid size Made of wood Stage 2 (Spiral 2) Full of RGB’s Having a Screen Try changing the MCU Stage 3 (Spiral 3) Enhance the Shape and the quality of the packaging Build an app or just link it to blynk IOT ESP32 Stage 4 (Spiral 4) Add Speaker “Amplifier circuit is needed” Try make the size smaller Try making the device rechargeable “Stand alone” Charging circuit is required Stage 5 (Spiral 5) Build it using 3D printer Small rounded shape Easy to carry RGB, No Screen, IOT Connected Project Sketch System Diagram Schedule

As planned I’m looking to create a device able to monitor the Surrounding air and check the quality of it. Air Quality Is a phrase refers to how clean the Air is and the amount of particles this air carry. When air quality is good, the air is clear and contains only small amounts of solid particle and chemical pollutants. Poor air quality, which contains high levels of pollutants, is often hazy and dangerous to health and the environment.

As per My previous research I have to collect (CO2 , Particulate Matter (PM), Volatile organic compounds (VOC), Temperature, and Humidity) to obtain the quality of the indoor AIR so below I will list the needed sensors to collect the required data and their primary test. List of sensors. ID Sensor Measured Value LINK Price Datasheet 1 SCD30 CO2, Temp, Hum LINK $51.4 LINK 2 PMS5003 PM1, PM2.5, PM10 LINK $39.

As for the platform I want to use, I have previously tested two platform in the Interface and Application Programming week and I have decided to use thinger.io because it have more options in terms of data monitoring and data analysis after the data reaches the platform, But unfortunately this platform is not cheap if I want to expand the sensor data im collecting, So I decided to go with Arduino cloud and buy the maker plan So I can push all my data to the cloud and have 90 days of data retention.

I have previously finished all testing for the hardware and the circuit is ready but it’s built using a breadboard now I need to design a new PCB board and make sure all my circuit is fully integrated on this board. As I have shown before my circuit is working 100% as I want and it is pushing data to the IOT platform as I want but I need now to make this complected messy looking circuit to a sleek lovely board with no complication when looking to it.

After finalizing all the Electrical requirement and the Board fabrication which the core of my project I need now a good representation for this core which can be a sleek piece on the corner or in the middle of the setting area which can’t go wrong when the person eye come to it and it attract the others attention. Previously I have decided to use ARABISC look on the front of the piece.

NOw After I have finalized the process of fabrication I need to assemble the housing all together with the PCB, But before that I need to make sure that this wood will stay in great shape as long as possible so i decided to give this wood some process to increase its life span and also to protect it from the Humidity and other weather conditions. This Process is the coating process as I will put a chemical liquid on the wood to protect it (This chemical is called Sanding Sealer)

After finalizing all the Housing Part and the needed to have every thing working as needed, Now I need to design and fabricate the stand for the housing to sit on and also enclosure for the PM2.5 Sensor –> This Is why I have decided to build this part. This part needs to be simple and compact, able to carry the housing piece and contain the PM2.5 sensor without any complications.

Alhamdulillah, all our previous efforts have culminated in outstanding results. Every component is meticulously designed and functioning flawlessly. Moreover, the Electronics component, the core of our product, seamlessly transmits data to the Cloud as required. Now I will show Up the final assembly for all the parts together and a brief about what next in the future. This Is the final look of the project To know More about this in a brief LINK.
