Linked to a number of serious health ailments, including heart and lung disease, as well as issues like asthma aggravation, the World Health Organization estimates that 91% of the world's population live in places where air quality exceeds guideline limits. With Project Eclipse, the Urban Innovation Initiative presents a full stack -from sensors to analytics- air quality sensing platform for cities. The goal is a radical increase (10x — 100x) in the geographic granularity of environmental sensing in cities in support of a variety of public health scenarios. httpsalwww-microsoft-comlen-uslresearchlproject/project-eclipse) 1 /6 1/25/2021 Custom Hardware Project Eclipse - Microsoft Research Project Eclipse devices are custom designed, from the electrical engineering to the enclosure, and calibrated in our hardware lab at Microsoft Research in Redmond, WA. The sensors measure CO, NO2, S02, and 03, as we€I as PM 1, PM 2.5, and PM 10, along with temperature and humidity. Data is transmitted via LTE-M direct to an Azure data stack. When taking hourly readings, each device should last about nine months on a single battery.
