For many decades miners have utilized the canary as a detection system for toxic fumes in the mine. However, now with revolunary technologies we can simulate a canary in a hand held device! By utilizing the BME680 we are able to not only detect toxic fumes within the area, but also temperture, pressure, and humidity and notify the users when they are exposed to an unhealthy environment.
We provide a menu for the users to easily access information about the product and environment
Sensor modules:
| Measurement | BME680 | BME280 | BMP280 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Temperature | [x] | [x] | [x] |
| Humidity | [x] | [x] | [ ] |
| Pressure | [x] | [x] | [x] |
| VOC / Gas | [x] | [ ] | [ ] |
We are using the ESP32 WROOM 32E N4 Module
We provide a beautifully drawn image of a canary by our intern james zheng, indicating the status of the environment. The image follows in the steps of tradition and how miners can grow attached to these animals.
