What is the Smart Citizen Kit?
The Smart Citizen Kit is an open source platform consisting of three technological layers: a hardware device, a website and an online API, and a mobile application. Below you will find an overview, and if you are interested, you will find all the bloody details on the Smart Citizen website.
Arduino-compatible hardware
The first layer is hardware consisting of two circuit boards: an interchangeable daughter board or shield and an Arduino-compatible data processing board. We called the sign developed for this campaign "The Ambient Board". As the name suggests, it carries sensors that measure air composition (CO and NO2), temperature, light intensity, sound level and humidity. Once set up, the Ambient Board can transmit the data measured by the sensors over Wi-Fi using the FCC-certified wireless module on the data processing board. The low power consumption of the device allows it to be installed on balconies and window sills. The device can be powered by a solar panel and/or a battery. All design files (schematics and PCB layout) for this open source, Arduino-compatible device are available in our Github repository.
