Acer Air monitoring – A smart health connected air purifier for the health home

Acer, better known for manufacturing laptops, smartphones and computer screens, has just unveiled its Acer Air monitoring and is therefore entering the small world of health home automation.

The Acer Air monitoring is a small smart health smart health connected object whose purpose is to monitoring the air quality in your health home. The cube-shaped device looks a bit like an incandescent smoke detector. It is capable of checking air quality in real time with a series of LED lights that change color to indicate the state of the air in the room where it is installed.

The sensors placed in the Acer Air monitoring track six indicators of air quality, including TVOCs (Total Volatile Organic Compounds), carbon dioxide, PM2.5, PM10, temperature and humidity. Alerts can be sent to your phone as push notifications to indicate when conditions are bad. Good news: this small smart health connected device is also compatible with IFTTT. You will therefore be able to configure rules to activate a smart health connected air purifier if the air in the room is degraded.

If you place it near your bed, the built-in sensor will turn off the lights so it doesn't blink on your face while you sleep. However, it will continue to monitoring the air quality in your room overnight.

If this little health home automation product is well thought out, there is nothing really new. Other smart air quality monitors have been released before; I am thinking in particular of Withings health home and Awair products which offer similar characteristics. Acer’s promise: a system offering a more elegant and complete alternative.

If this product interests you, know that it will be marketed in the second quarter in countries chosen by the brand. Unveiled at MWC 2017 in Barcelona, ​​would this be the first in a long series of smart health home products?
