Abstract

Recreational areas are where the retired folks and children spend their time most, especially during the weekends. Due to extreme fogging and leakage of gasses, be it from factories and industries, have severely impacted the air quality over the years. The main objective of this project is to design a solar-powered air quality monitoring system for recreational areas. This system aims to provide real-time air quality data to visitors, ensuring a safe and healthy environment for recreational activities. This project has developed an air quality monitoring system by using multiple sensors to detect harmful gases in the air and delivers data through Wi-Fi connection to IoT server. This system could be manipulated by installing the appropriate application through any App Store / Play Store to allow visitors to view information about air conditions in the area they want to spend their leisure time by downloading the respective app. The air quality monitoring system hardware would be placed at recreational spots, mainly parks. In essence, the two components of this project development are software development and hardware development. Software development uses an IoT platform to construct a mobile application, whereas hardware development uses a sensor, a microcontroller, and a Wi-Fi module. Upon completion, the project is expected to deliver a robust air quality monitoring system tailored for recreational areas. Visitors will have access to real-time air quality data through a mobile application, enhancing their experience by ensuring a healthy environment for recreational activities. The system's performance will be validated through comparisons with established air quality monitoring tools, demonstrating its reliability and accuracy in providing air quality information.
