Development of air quality measurement system using raspberry Pi

Air pollution is a major health issue in many countries. Air pollutants pose a danger to human health if their concentrations exceeding the tolerable levels. Monitoring such pollutants and their levels is an important precautionary measure to alarm the public about air quality around them. In Malays...
