The project is available on github and you can get a basic overview of the project on main README.md file:</span><br></div><div style="font-size:12.8px"><br></div><div style="font-size:12.8px"><a href="https://github.com/msaadq/aero2" target="_blank">https://github.com/msaadq/aero2</a><br></div><div style="font-size:12.8px"><br></div><div style="font-size:12.8px">Or Watch the intro Video: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RkyMHUqihVs" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RkyMHUqihVs</a></div><div style="font-size:12.8px"><br></div><div style="font-size:12.8px">The project works like this:</div><div style="font-size:12.8px"><br></div><div style="font-size:12.8px">Our volunteers or general athletes use our arm-band (BT enabled with MQ-5 sensor) to collect small samples (without them noticing) during their commute or walking/running sessions from different parts of a city.</div><div style="font-size:12.8px"><br></div><div style="font-size:12.8px">We collect that data from our database and relate it to certain properties of different nodes of a city to a specified resolution (50x50 metres in our case) and use the samples (of some nodes) and properties (of all nodes) to predict the samples for the rest of the nodes without physical sampling.</div><div style="font-size:12.8px"><br></div><div style="font-size:12.8px">I want to make a formal proposal for this project, but I wanted your feedback on it first.</div><div style="font-size:12.8px"><br></div><div style="font-size:12.8px">This Project has a hardware module, android application module and 2 backend modules.</div><div style="font-size:12.8px"><br></div><div style="font-size:12.8px">Hardware:</div><div style="font-size:12.8px"> - Interfaces the MQ-5 sensor and Bluetooth module with the ARM Cortex M4 processor for data acquisition over Bluetooth and sending it directly to the android app (Completed)</div><div style="font-size:12.8px"><br></div><div style="font-size:12.8px">Android Application:</div><div style="font-size:12.8px"> - Uses Mapbox API to visualize the data as heat maps overlay over google maps for both sampled and resultant data and allows the user to enable the sensor remotely for collecting samples.
