Check out the new publication of Asst. Prof. Joshua Agar et al. entitled “Ventilation and disease monitoring of indoor spaces and public transportation using an NDIR sensor network” published in the Frontiers in Built Environment Volume 9-2023.
The study developed an economical CO2 monitoring device that was deployed in various indoor spaces, and can be a useful tool to inform occupants of the relative risk that they may be subjected to due to airborne diseases transmitted through shared room air transmission.
The development of the CO2 monitors and part of this study are funded by the UPD OVCRD Extension Grant and the DOST through the UP Center for Air Research in Urban Environments – CARE research program.
Asst. Prof. Agar is currently a member of UP ICE Structural Engineering Group.
