  1. Air Quality Monitor Jeff Wojtusik Danielle Howe Matthew Knauf

  2. Background: AQM • Project began Fall 2012 with P13625 • Team was charged with building an air quality monitor with increased functionality over previous models. • Previous model was created by Berkeley Air Quality monitoring Group in conjunction with University of California Berkeley. • Known as UCB-PATS • The AQM designed by RIT added the increased functionality of detecting CO in addition to temperature, humidity, and particulate matter(PM).

  3. Background: AQM • To improve performance and feasibility, broke project down into 2 similar monitors • Both will monitor temperature, humidity, and PM • First monitor will record CO levels • Second monitor will record NOx and SOx levels • VOC and VOE are basically the same, the following slides contain information from the original AQM that monitors CO

  4. VOC Review: Customer Needs: AQM • Customer needs: • Primarily need monitor to have functionality of UCB-PATS • Additionally want to monitor CO and humidity

  5. VOC Review: Technical Goals: AQM • Monitor should have all capabilities of the UCB-PATS monitor • Ensure all sensors record continuous data • Increase the battery life • Improve upon UI • Create a monitor which is discrete in subject’s home • Monitor is capable of resisting outside environment, shipping, and installation

  6. Functional Decomposition: AQM

  7. Metrics and Specs: AQM

  8. House of Quality: AQM

  9. Feasibility Study: AQM • Will analyze the following aspects: • Cost • Size • Battery Life • Weight

  10. Potential Designs: AQM • Morphological chart:

  11. Pugh Chart: AQM

  12. Project Background: Lamp Post Monitor • Across the globe there is a growing issue with air quality and its impact upon personal health. • The purpose of this project is to develop a monitor that can visually show bystanders what kind of contaminants they are being exposed to in real time. • Hopefully, by showing people this it might push for a movement to reduce environmental emissions and improve air quality. • Smog in Hong Kong

  13. Customer Needs: Lamp Post Monitor • Since our group is the primary customer of this project currently, all of the VOC were determined by us.

  14. Objective Tree: Lamp Post Monitor

  15. Functional Decomposition: Lamp Post

  16. Metrics and Specs: Lamp Post Monitor

  17. HOQ: Lamp Post Monitor

  18. Questions • What are possible issues that could arise with lamp post monitors installed on campus? • Do you have any suggestions for the design of the lamp post monitor? • Does the lamp post monitor seem like a feasible MSD project? • If you could change anything about these projects what would you change? • Any comments or questions regarding our VOC or VOE?
