Important Innovations Collection: Air Pollution Monitored on Every Street
Nano-sensors to Detect Air Pollution on Every Street Source: Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden New Tech Innovation from Sweden This new technology was just developed by a researcher at Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden. It's a nano-sensor that can be attached to streetlights to monitor air pollution. The sensor is tiny, portable, cheap, simple and capable of detecting very low amounts of air pollution such as nitrogen dioxide which causes respiratory damage and heart disease. It's already being deployed in western Sweden.
