AirVisual, a social enterprise that provides air quality tools and information people need to thrive in polluted environments, today announced the worldwide launch of the Airvisual Node, the world’s smartest air quality monitor allowing people around the world to control the air they breathe.

The portable device uses a complex proprietary algorithm to calculate and display real-time and three-day forecasts of particulate matter (PM) and carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations on a screen and via the AirVisual mobile app.

The Node is now available for pre-ordering via the AirVisual Indiegogo campaign immediately for $139 (ships in April), and will launch on regular online retail channels in May for $199.

The AirVisual Node combines a set of cutting-edge technologies to deliver unprecedented accuracies and durability:

  • High precision laser to counts pollution particles in the air, which is then processed with a unique algorithm to calibrate for external factors such as temperature, humidity and outliers.
  • Bright display compares indoor readings with outdoor data, from the nearest official station, so users know when to ventilate, go outside or stay inside.  
  • Intuitive graphs convert air quality data into actionable insight to help users understand when and why they are breathing unhealthy air.
  • Air-flow control fans provide more stable readings and improved durability.
  • Three-day air quality forecasts driven by in-house artificial intelligence enable users to proactively minimize exposure to outdoor air pollution.
  • Supplemental crowd-sourced map allows community members see what is happening in the neighborhood.

“At AirVisual, our goal is to empower everyone to breathe clean, healthy air,” Yann explains, “By adding the AirVisual Node to our set of tools that include our global air pollution map and three-day forecasts, we have localized the air quality challenge down to the individual, bringing a seemingly daunting task to something as manageable as a single room.”
