Topic: Air Quality

Just curious, has anyone heard or even have any experience with this?

Looks interesting, I was actually thinking about some air quality sensor a few yrs ago, since I live in a large city, where for example lightning sensor is useless due to interference, on the other hand measuring the emissions would be quite interesting. Back then there was nothing really usable for hobbyists, only pro devices. This looks interesting.

Just get a AirPi for a Raspberry Pi. http://airpi.es/participate.php  Looks pretty neat!

The above looks cool, the major problem I have with it is the price. The main problem is that they have "an egg" for each gas, i.e. you have to buy the whole device, not just the actual sensor, for each gas. This means you are paying several LCD displays, several wi-fi modules etc etc. If you wanted to measure 4-5 gases it would be quite a hefty price

Too bad that unless you find someone that is looking to offload it, the project is dead.  I would have taken this on to build and see but I guess it either was not that good or just not enough call for people to want one...
