Abstract

Dust is one of the more worrisome manifestations of air pollution, which is a ubiquitous hazard to both our environment and health. Pollutants such as ozone, nitrogen oxides, and particulate matter combine with dust, which covers urban and highly populated areas, obstructing the skyline. This paper proposes a mobile application-based system to gather data from dust sensor hardware devices which were conveniently installed in classrooms at the University of Hafr Al-Batin and its offices premises. An Arduino-based Internet of Things (IoT) device is connected to a fine dust sensor and provides dust-level data to a mobile application in real time. This system serves as a dependable and informative indicator of dust levels present in these spaces. This application provides the students, faculty members, and employees with the tools to actively monitor and address potential dust-related concerns within their immediate surroundings. The proposed application is expected to monitor and provide early warning on the environmental health conditions of at the University of Hafr Al-Batin in real-time. Students and the staff members can then avoid places where pollution levels endanger their health.
