Aerasense: Monitoring and signaling air pollution
The quality of the air that we breathe is not always what we expect. This has important consequences for the health, wellbeing and comfort of people. Recent scientific research has shown that ultra-fine particles are an important factor in the health effects of air pollution. They are an invisible threat in the air in our living and working environments. These insights in the health-threatening impact of these particles give sufficient reasons for concern and action. Philips has invented a technology that enables continuous monitoring of the air pollution caused by ultra-fine particles: Aerasense. This solution provides real-time information on ultra-fine particle concentration levels. It makes the invisible particles visible. Information on ultra-fine particle levels provides evidence of clean and healthy air and could be a starting point for further improving air quality. The Aerasense technology can be used for a variety of applications including air treatment for buildings and occupational health. We at Philips Aerasense welcome partnerships aimed at guaranteeing clean air and thus contributing to the health, wellbeing and comfort of people. |
