The Robot Dog
In collaboration with Koniku Inc, I co-built a robotic dog designed for intelligent environmental monitoring. This advanced robotic system autonomously scans its surroundings, creating real-time air quality maps by detecting and analyzing volatile organic compounds (VOCs), chemicals that significantly impact human health.
Key Features & Technologies
Autonomous Navigation – Uses LiDAR and computer vision to explore environments without human intervention.
VOC Detection & Mapping – Equipped with specialized gas sensors to track air pollutants, mapping their distribution in real time.
AI-Driven Decision Making – Utilizes machine learning algorithms to predict pollution sources and assess environmental risks.
IoT Connectivity – Sends real-time data to cloud dashboards for remote monitoring and analysis.
Impact Summary
This innovation is vital in industries, urban areas, and disaster-prone zones, providing early warnings on air quality deterioration, aiding health and safety measures, and supporting climate action efforts.
