Healthy Spaces: an open-source device that monitors a room's environmental quality.

We spend most of our lives indoors and almost never know what we are breathing. Healthy Spaces makes that invisible air visible.

Built around an Adafruit PM2.5 sensor and an Arduino MKR board in a 3D-printed enclosure, it reads the environmental quality of whatever room it sits in, a bedroom, an office, a classroom, and puts real numbers on the air. The whole thing is released under an open-source license and designed to be printed and assembled by anyone who wants one.

Healthy spaces make for healthy people, and the first step is simply being able to see the air you are in.
