Project code : Nanoimp.

Objective : Monitor and eliminate dust and particle in the air.

Location : Singapore (1.2971342,103.7777567,17).

Time : 2160 hour.

Target : Complete system, low cost, & better life

Idea 101:

Now the air quality become worse and worse especially in town area. This idea is to solve air issue for critical need like asthma patient, laser laboratory and baby or elderly.

The main Idea is build monitor system and air filter system.

Monitor device is for monitor dust, temperature and humidity in the air.

Air filter device is to filter air and cool the area(optional).

This two device will work together via IoT.

All the device can be link and manage to work together or individual.

For example, user can setup 3 monitor system with just one filter system. The information from 3 monitor system can be use to control the filter system in a require setting.

On the other way round, user also can only use one monitor system to control multiple filter system.

Monitor System:

This is planning monitor system and not the end prototype. It will be different in part and program development.

My plan is try to use the given device before going to other.

This is the main system to be done. I hope can complete all but for now just concentrate on the main.

Monitor System 1:

Monitor System 2:

Filter System:

For filter system the main idea is simple. Force dust and particle (nanoimp) to water and trap them in the water.

If this still not enough then trap them in HEPA filter after the water trap.

Not sure what sensor will be included at this moment, maybe water level. Let see how.

Some testing:

Filter test:

It look simple, build simple and it simply work

Try using the big fan with no speed drive it blow hard to water and water splash every where.

End up running 12V blower for few hour and the result quite good but those big fan work great he..he..

Simple check using 10W LED touch light to check the dust and look like this method working very well.

The big dust & particle even can seen in the water trapped

Sorry no waterproof camera to show the dust & particle in the water.

Maybe next time update you guys with the picture.

Show time but it a bit boring.

Sierra Wireless system Testing:

I have starting to play around with Sierra wireless cloud system to more understanding their system.

Starting with registering and it was easy (http://developer.sierrawireless.com/Cloud%20Platform.aspx).

First view around for example as many as I can get to boost up the development time.

When searching around the system look very serious, They plan for BIG, I mean is their system is design so that can support thousand or even million device and all around the world.

Don't worry, with this ability then for small quantity it should not be an issue he..he..

I found this and it look easy (http://airvantage.github.io/tutorials/2013/07/05/rest-for-devices/)

Have try for few time to upload my apps but just get error for not supported file. Maybe there are something wrong or stupid thing done by me.

I just hope they have a working downloadable file for user to try out.

Will try again when have free time
