Abstract


The atmospheric air pollution is a major concern in modern cities, especially in developing countries like Malaysia. In this paper, we have reported an effective implementation for Internet of Things used for monitoring the level of air pollution based on Malaysia Air Pollution Index (API). The low-cost and real time system would be able to monitor regular air quality pollutants including Particulate Matter (PM) of PM2.5, PM10 and Carbon Monoxide (CO) gas as well as the temperatures and humidity of the surroundings. The system has capability to detect Good, Moderate, Unhealthy, Very Unhealthy and Hazardous API status. Based on 5 weeks of experimental API monitoring result on specified test location, the system was able to demonstrate promising results in providing a reliable real time monitoring of the air quality condition.
