SUMMARY:

The concept of quality of life standards encompasses various factors that assess individual or collective well-being. Among them, highlights include the time devoted to work, leisure, and health services, as well as access to green areas. Atmospheric pollution, primarily caused by human activity, has significant impacts on air quality and public health. Conferences and international agreements are dedicated to addressing climate issues and reducing pollution. The implementation of environmental monitoring systems is crucial to mitigate the impacts of industrialization and vehicle traffic on air quality and human health.

In this context, monitoring air quality becomes essential as it allows for mitigation and environmental control measures to be taken according to the needs of each location. Low-cost sensors become viable options for academic purposes and private institutions. Therefore, the present research focuses on the use, analysis of charges, and operation of the low-cost sensor system named QualiAr.

Both the construction and use of the system are easily accessible and manageable. The results obtained have been satisfactory, despite some caveats. The system occasionally experienced interruptions in data collection, calibration is necessary for better sensor accuracy, and a search for an external power source to enable uninterrupted transportation and use is required.
