Carbon dioxide, also known as CO2, surrounds us everywhere and affects us every minute. An increase in the concentration of CO2 has a much greater impact on our well-being than a decrease in the concentration of oxygen in the air. This is why residential air quality standards require that the air be replaced three times per hour.
When the CO2 concentration increases, a person may experience a loss of concentration and yawning. This can lead to more severe headaches, nausea, and even loss of consciousness. Therefore, CO2 sensors are widely used. However, the vast majority of sensors use an optical method, which is energy-intensive and requires a power connection.
We are in favor of autonomous solutions that are easy to install and operate, and do not require wiring. Therefore, we have created an autonomous, wireless CO2 concentration sensor that runs on a built-in battery for 3 years and has good accuracy.
