Did you know that humans breathe in more than 10,000 l / day and spend 90 % of their life in buildings? Indoor air quality strongly affects our health and well-being as well as the risk of virus infections via Aerosols, such as COVID-19. The BME680 sensor has been developed to detect exhaled human breath and outputs an index of air quality.

In this 45-minute on-demand webinar, we give you an overview of environmental sensing in relation to indoor air quality. You will see why and how sensing solutions help fight the spread of COVID-19.

Whether at home, in the office or outdoors, we need to be confident that the air around us is clean and safe to breathe – COVID-19 has clearly highlighted the importance of air quality. Due to the particulates, gases and even airborne viruses ubiquitously present in our modern environment, poor air quality has an increasingly negative impact on our health and well-being. To address this growing need, Bosch Sensortec has announced the BME688, the first air quality MEMS sensor that combines gas, humidity, temperature and barometric pressure sensing with innovative artificial intelligence (AI) capability.

The world’s first self-learning AI sensor for wearables and hearables is based on Edge AI. Having an “edge” like that on your wrist makes your fitness tracker individually tailored to you and the way you move. With each movement it adjusts itself. The sensor provides more reliable analytics and reduces the need for data storage space, eliminating data transmission to the cloud. Keeping you in control of your data. Melena and Geoff learn from product manager Kaustubh Gandhi and research scientist Thomas Nilsson what went into the development of this new approach to fitness trackers.
