Today, Acer has announced a new device air monitor. Simply called as the Acer Air Monitor, the compact device is designed to help people keep tabs on indoor air quality, as well as allowing users to monitor key air quality indicators through a dedicated app for smartphones.
Through the usage of smartphone monitoring, the user can know how is the air quality by the changing colors of a breathing LED light embedded on the chassis. Thanks to IFTTT integration, home automation based on air quality indicators, such as activating an air purifier, can be achieved.
With a wide variety of sensors, the device is able to keep track of six key air quality indicators which are TVOC (Total Volatile Organic Compounds), carbon dioxide, PM2.5, PM10, temperature, and humidity
The measured data can be easily accessed in real time from a dedicated smartphone app from anywhere in the world through the internet, while warnings can be sent via push notifications when indicators exceed predefined thresholds. Triggers can also be sent to IFTTT, allowing users to take action when air quality changes.
The Acer Air Monitor will be available in Q2 in selected countries, and will be on display during MWC 2017 at the Taiwan Excellence booth (Hall 7, 7L81). Exact specifications, prices, and availability will vary by region.
