Development and testing of an IoT-based solution to monitor Thermal Comfort and Air Quality to support the health of people living in home environments

The core concept of the EOI is to develop and test an IoT-based system that continuously monitors thermal comfort and indoor air quality in real time, targeting individuals living in home environments. The solution aims: (i) to collect indoor environmental data (temperature, humidity and air quality) by integrating low-cost IoT sensors, Edge Computing, and a user-friendly dashboard, and (ii) to provide actionable insights to support health and well-being of the occupant. The research vision is to create a scalable, automated monitoring platform that empowers users and their relatives/caregivers to proactively manage indoor living conditions, reducing health risks associated with poor environmental variables within indoor environments.
