A sensor product for detecting an analyte or condition. The sensor product having a body and a circuit integrated with the body. The circuit including an electric power source, a sensing element comprising graphene or a graphene derivative in which the sensing element is configured to undergo a change in an electrical property in the presence of an analyte or condition, and an indicator configured to display information indicating the presence of the analyte or condition when the change in an electrical property of the sensing element occurs. For instance, the indicator may display “DANGER EVACUATE” in the presence of chlorine gas, elevated temperatures, or other analytes or conditions.

Monitoring system, device and method for detecting chemicals in an insect environment, such as a beehive or colony. The method can include monitoring the insect environment for the presence or absence of at least one chemical or environmental factor using at least one sensor located within the insect environment, the at least one sensor operative to generate data in response to the presence or absence of at least one chemical or factor in the environment and communicate the data to an associated data processing device, monitoring a population of insects in the insect environment to detect a change in the population or health of insects that make up the population, and generating a correlation between a detected change in the population or health of insects in the insect environment with an increase or decrease of the at least one chemical outside the insect environment.

A system, method and a monitoring device for monitoring air quality of a closed space are disclosed. A plurality of ducts is coupled with the closed space and the plurality of monitoring devices monitors a quality of air inside the plurality of ducts. Each of the plurality of monitoring devices stores a location of placement of each of a monitoring device present inside the closed space, learns a level of carbon dioxide present inside the closed space over a period of time and estimate a number of occupants present inside the closed space based on the level of carbon dioxide present inside the closed space using a machine learning model. Further, the plurality of monitoring devices transmits the monitored quality of air inside the closed space along with the location of the placement of each of the monitoring device and the identified number of occupants to a cloud server.

An optical detector device may receive a spectroscopic measurement from a multispectral sensor. The optical detector device may determine, based on the spectroscopic measurement, a particulate size of a particulate. The optical detector device may determine, based on the spectroscopic measurement, an identification of the particulate. The optical detector device may determine, based on the particulate size and the identification of the particulate, that an alert condition is satisfied. The optical detector device may trigger an alert based on determining that the alert condition is satisfied.

A method and system for detecting sulfur fires that comprises a remote infrared or microwave sensor to detect sulfur dioxide gas and provide an unsupervised remote daytime and nighttime sulfur fire-watch, hot spot detection, early sulfur fire prevention, sulfur fire detection, or sulfur fire control of unattended combustible sulfur blocks, sulfur stockpiles, sulfur plants, or equipment using remote sensing devices that includes detection, measurement and analysis of electromagnetic radiation to determine the presence of sulfur dioxide gas.

The systems of the present invention provide monitoring and recording means for monitoring and maintaining a history of one or more parameters associated with a building or a particular location. The system can be preset with default actions to be conducted as a result of certain events or changes in certain parameters being detected. For example, the water and/or gas utilities can be programmed to shut down if smoke is detected, indicating the possible presence of a fire, or if the temperature drops below freezing temperature. All utilities, including gas, and water can be programmed to shut down in the event that a potentially significant change in a monitored parameter is detected.

A method for monitoring a concentration of a corrosive gas including at least observing at least one gas fuse, the gas fuse having at least one metal wire, which is configured for breaking due to corrosion if exposed to the corrosive gas in a way that a time-integrated concentration of the corrosive gas exceeds a critical value.

A device for measuring the concentration of a gas constituting the ambient air includes a wristwatch comprising a watch case (13) containing a watch movement, members indicating the time (1, 3, 9) visible through a glass of the watch case (13). In addition, the wristwatch comprises at least one sensor (11) arranged to measure the concentration of a gas constituting the ambient air. The wristwatch also includes means for actuating an alert when reaching or exceeding a threshold of the gas concentration measured by the sensor (11). The device includes two operating states, a “time” state and an “alarm” state, wherein in the “time” state, the members indicating the time (1, 1′, 3, 9) indicate the time and the sensor (11) permanently measures the gas concentration without displaying it or activating the alert. In case where the sensor (11) detects a concentration of a gas, the device switches to the “alert” state wherein the indicator member (4, 4′, 8, 9, 10) displays this measured value and/or the means for actuating an alert actuate an alert normally without the time being displayed.

A system for mitigating thermal runaway in a battery-powered electric vehicle (EV). The system includes a gas sensor configured to measure a level of at least one type of gas in a vicinity of a battery of the EV, a thermal event detector configured to determine, based on the measured level of the at least one type of gas, that the battery is experiencing out-gassing, and a communications interface configured to transmit an alert to a fleet management system regarding the out-gassing of the battery. The fleet management system alters an assignment of the EV in response to the out-gassing of the battery.

A device (1) comprising a cavity (5) defining an internal volume, an air quality sensor (9) being adapted to measure a concentration of at least one air compound present in the internal volume, the cavity (5) can be alternatively in: an open state in which air can enter into the cavity (5) from the outside of the cavity (5), and a closed state in which no air can circulate between the outside and the inside of the cavity (5),
the air quality sensor (9) being adapted to be calibrated when the cavity (5) is in the closed state and once the internal volume no longer comprises the air compound or comprises a concentration of the air compound that is below a predefined threshold.
