AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The patent describes a system and method for monitoring air quality in an environment. The system includes a sensor array and a microprocessor connected to the sensor array. The sensor array can be placed in the environment and the microprocessor can convert the sensor data into a data signal. The data signal can be transmitted to a server and a database for analysis and storage. The system can also include a wireless communication system for transmitting data to a server. The method involves sensing an air quality factor in the environment, converting the data into a first database, and transmitting the data to a server. The server can calculate a market value for the property based on the environmental data and a processor can generate a report with the commercial value assigned to the location. The system can also include a second sensor array and a second database for comparison. The technical effects of the patent include improved air quality monitoring and analysis, as well as real-time reporting and sharing of the monitoring data.

Problems solved by technology

Humans are capable of detecting both toxic and non-toxic chemicals with their sense of smell and without specialized training it can be difficult for humans to differentiate between safe chemicals and harmful chemicals.

Some chemicals can be harmful in concentration, but harmless in small amounts, and it can be difficult for humans to differentiate between safe and harmful levels by smell alone.

Perishable goods can go bad if not stored properly, and things like grains, eggs, meat, fish, seafood, dairy products, and produce can be sensitive and cause food poisoning if not stored properly.
