Family creates a homemade carbon dioxide test #Feather #COVID19 #Health #DIY @mtlgazette

As 11-year-old Odessa’s school awaits government-promised carbon dioxide testing, which can be an indicator for poor ventilation, she uses her own CO2 monitor to assess air quality in her classroom.

Her parents came to the idea after reading about what’s known of how COVID-19 spreads through aerosols, especially in poorly ventilated spaces.

The monitor uses an Adafruit Feather M4, Real Time Clock logging FeatherWing, a CO2 sensor and OLED display.

See the video below and the article here.
