Air quality sensor detects microscopic pollutants
https://www.electronics-lab.com/air-quality-sensor-detects-microscopic-pollutants/
Mitsubishi Electric announced that it has developed a small, high-precision air-quality sensor, the world first to detect all fine particles measuring no more than 2.5 micrometers in diameter, called PM2.5, as well as pollen and dust. It also senses the density of particles precisely. Scattered light from PM2.5 particles is measured with Mitsubishi Electric’s unique […]
