Air pollution monitoring By sensors embedded on mobile phone
Journal Title: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF COMPUTERS & TECHNOLOGY - Year 2013, Vol 11, Issue 5
Abstract
Mobile technology has been available for at least a decade and is increasingly being used in developing countries as away of contacting and connecting citizens and helping them to organize for a better life.Mobile phones are not just for phone calls, but they can also be used to collect data in several different formats and send them to a central server. There the data can be aggregated and analyzed, with tables and visualizations automatically generated. What is new is the sheer number of observation points that are potentially available by using mobile phones. With over 4 billion phones in use worldwide, the mobile phone network is emerging as a form of “global brain” with sensors everywhere. In addition, there are companies such as Fourier Systems that provide purpose-built mobile devices that are specifically designed for science experiments in school sand for data logging in any science project.
