ACQA Research Project

Acquisition and Characterization of Air Quality

Group : Reliability Engineering and Decision-Making tools

Labelling: none

Duration: 28 months (from March 1, 2022 to June 30, 2024)

Funding: Research commission of the University of Angers - AMI Participative Sciences

Staff involved from LARIS: Marie-Lise Pannier, Franck Mercier

Project partners: Alain Godon (Polytech), 5 students of the SAGI and BEMS specialties of Polytech Angers

Abstract :

The ACQA project is part of a participatory science approach on the first three levels of Hacklay's classification (2013). We are developing an electronic card integrating many sensors to characterize the presence of a list of indoor air pollutants established by ANSES. Five students of the SAGI and BEMS specialties of Polytech Angers are involved in the project. The final objective is to enable the procurement of this "multiphysics sensor" to anyone who wishes to do so anywhere in France, and thus participate in the creation of an open and anonymized database. These data will be freely accessible to researchers in many fields (pediatric oncology, vegetation, building comfort, etc.).
