Promoting citizen science
You will have the opportunity to join the network of people doing air quality measurement world-wide. An open source monitoring device will be available for buying during the conference, and a keynote related to the sensoring community will give you context on how to use such devices.
Due to the very low demand, this part of Brightcon will not take place
this year. You can still buy your own sensor, build it, contribute and
maybe even present your experience during Brighcon 2023.
- To get more information about the sensors, visit the Sensor Community website.
- You can build your own sensor following the shopping list and instructions. You will also find there links to suppliers that provide the full kit, ready to be "assembled".
