SODAQ AIR

Both the AIR and the data it collects are open source. This gives everyone, everywhere access to the complete schematics of the device, and a global database of air quality measurements. 

The portable air monitor

Breathe Smarter With SODAQ AIR

Each trip you take tells a unique story about the air quality, all of which you can access by inputting your AIR’s unique identifier into the Know Your AIR global map.

The aggregation of all the data in a 100×100 meter area, is averaged on an hourly basis and uploaded to the global map as open data. This creates a network of detailed air measurements across the globe while protecting user anonymity. (Read our privacy statement)


Humidity Sensor
  • PM consists of tiny solid particles and liquid droplets, which are directly influenced by water levels in the air. To get an even better indication of day-to-day changes in air quality, the humidity sensors provide in-depth readings on these water levels.
Particle Matter
Sensor
  • State-of-the-art PM sensor that measures particle parameters including PM1, PM10, with a primary focus on PM2.5. 
Humidity & Temperature
  • The concentration of particulate matter is directly linked to the temperature and water content of the air. With the AIR’s advanced sensors you can get a complete understanding of those parameters and the resulting changes in air quality.
GPS
  • A smart GPS that tracks and records air quality levels while on the move. 
  • Personalized data to help you identify problematic areas you encounter daily and to monitor exposure.
LED
Indicator
  • Easy to understand LED light strip that changes color to communicate real-time air quality changes.
Accelerometer
  • Never miss a journey with motion technology that signals sensors to begin recording upon detecting movement.
  • Stops recording data automatically when the AIR speed reaches above 50km/h (car or train).

REAL-TIME AIR QUALITY MONITOR
AT YOUR FINGERTIPS​

A highly intuitive air quality monitor, designed to help everyone, everywhere understand the quality of the AIR.

Revolutionary Air Quality Insights While You Ride

How does it work?

1. Set Up

  • Connect the SODAQ AIR to a USB-C charger. 
  • Wait for the blue light signal to turn white to indicate charging status.
  • During charging mode, the SODAQ AIR will check for over-the-air updates.

2. Start Monitoring – Fixed or On The Go

  • The SODAQ AIR comes equipped with a turn-locking mechanism that allows you to attach the sensor securely to the handlebars of your bicycle.
  • A magnet in the mount will trigger the AIR to start up, taking between 30 seconds to a minute. Once booted up the AIR will begin gathering data.
  •  Switch to static mode to measure air pollution from a fixed location over an extended period of time

3. Real-time Ride Alerts

  • LED light strip changes color on your route to signal changes in air quality.
  • Green, orange, and red lights alert you to low, medium, and high concentrations of PM along your journey.
  • The SODAQ AIR will automatically remove the first and last 10 minutes of every journey to protect your privacy.

4. Dashboard Insights

  • All data recorded will be synced to the Know Your AIR global air quality map. 
  • The aggregation of all the data in a 100×100 meter area is averaged on an hourly basis to protect user anonymity.
  • By inputting your device’s unique identifier into the map, you can see your personal data.
  • Corporations, local governments, can access global air quality data to build strategies and solutions for clean air initiatives.

Recent Projects

From the drawing board, to the first prototype, all the way through to production, each project is unique.

Swap Bodies

For long-distance transportation of goods, swap bodies have become an invaluable tool for many businesses around the world. However, its flexibility comes with logistical challenges: Risk for theft and loss, complex planning and lack of visibility in the absence of options to power tracking devices. For this, SODAQ developed the TRACK Extreme, a robust solution that thrives in rough environments.

For who?

Logistics and transport organizations that move goods over long-distance using non-powered containers and are looking to gain back control and optimize their planning.

What?
  • Reliable connectivity via LTE-M or NB-IoT and offering 2G fall back
  • Solar panel, allowing for low maintenance and autonomous tracking for up to 20 years
  • A robust design and IP69-rated case, made for rough environments
Tell me more

With the TRACK Extreme, supply chain managers are now able to monitor the location of their swap bodies and truck trailers in real-time. The Extreme sends data about the swap bodies and truck trailers to easily monitor and manage them more effectively. Easily understand which container carries which load. Receive a notification on delays. Find your cargo within seconds due to real-time tracking. The TRACK Extreme, in combination with the platform-agnostic Silica platform, offers it all.

Smart City

Make the invisible visible and put forward a citywide initiative to combat air pollution. SODAQ AIR can be supplied in bulk and distributed among local citizens to provide local leaders with actionable information to help achieve their clean air goals.

For who?

Local governments, municipal bodies, and smart city coordinators who are responsible for managing the community’s air quality. These community representatives want a true understanding of air pollution to implement data-driven strategies, new infrastructure, and targeted policies that mitigate or eliminate high levels of particulate matter.

What?
  • Fill the data gaps in conventional monitoring systems with real-time data at a community level. 
  • Effectively narrow down pollution areas in your city where individuals work, live, and play.
  • Achieve a comprehensive air quality monitoring network that spans the entire city.
