Web3 public sensors map
Welcome to the decentralized opensource sensors map which operates with the sole intent of serving the free will of individuals , without any beneficiaries. It offers two distinct layers of decentralization at your choise: peer-to-peer connectivity for direct access to sensor data, and the federative concept for accumulating sensor data and displaying measurement history.

Curious about your environmental insights? So are we. Measure it, test it, and have fun discovering what’s floating around you.
CO₂ at Home: Measure It and Just Open a Window
We spend most of our day indoors: sleeping, working, cooking, relaxing, and exercising. And throughout all of this, we breathe. With every breath we exhale CO₂. If there isn’t enough fresh air coming into the room, its concentration gradually increases.
Hands-On With the Next Firmware: Flashing Testing Over USB-C
A step-by-step walkthrough of installing the Testing firmware on an Altruist Urban with the Robonomics ESP Installer — what survives the update, what the new web interface looks like, and how to get back to Stable.
Altruist Urban for Industrial Cities: Local Air Quality Monitoring
Official monitoring stations are essential for assessing air quality across a city or region. But an industrial city is not a uniform environment. Particle concentrations can differ near an industrial facility, in a residential neighborhood, along a busy road, or just a few kilometers away from an industrial zone. Even at the same location, conditions can change significantly depending on the time of day and the weather.
Coming soon: the next Altruist firmware
A preview of the next Altruist firmware: mobile-first web hub, owner-scoped map encryption, and backup/restore.
The Manual Is Now a Prompt: Setting Up Altruist With Your AI Assistant
Altruist now ships with a setup guide written for AI assistants. Scan one QR code into ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini and it walks you through connecting your sensor, step by step, in your language.
PM2.5 and PM10: What Are We Really Breathing, and Why Should We Measure the Air Around Us?
We often judge air quality by what we can see.A busy road looks polluted. A construction site looks dusty. A park or a house in the countryside seems clean. If we see smoke, we assume the air quality is poor. If the sky is blue, everything seems fine. But particulate pollution cannot always be seen or felt.
