LoPy Board Based Smart Air Quality & Pollution Monitoring System

Air pollution silently affects millions of lives every day, and monitoring it accurately has become a global priority. This project transforms classrooms into innovation labs by using the powerful LoPy board, capable of LoRa + Wi-Fi + Bluetooth + Sigfox communication. Students can build a real-world solution that measures air quality with multiple sensors and transmits data seamlessly to a mobile app dashboard.

The system continuously tracks PM2.5, CO₂, CO, and temperature/humidity levels in real time. If any harmful levels are detected, the LoPy board triggers alerts via Wi-Fi or LoRaWAN, ensuring immediate awareness. Beyond academics, this project mirrors real industry deployments in smart cities, environmental research, and public health monitoring.

Students receive not just a project but a complete skill-building kit, blending IoT, wireless communication, cloud integration, and AI-driven insights. It’s designed to impress evaluators, stand out in placements, and build resumes that prove job readiness.
