While concerns about outdoor air quality continue to grow, we often don’t realize that indoor air quality can be as bad, or worse. Especially for those doing crafts or creative endeavors, which can create toxic fumes, off-gassing, and more.
Ambient One was designed specifically for places like this, and has the capability of linking air quality data with specific creative activities. With four sensors and built-in AI, the small yet powerful device features a screen that gives a readout of current air quality, and offers handy features like a kickstand and can magnet to a metal surface.
For projects like 3D printing, kiln firing, and using toxic adhesives, it’s a helpful tool that reminds you to take charge of the air in your studio, and not just your outdoor surroundings.
With a highly successful Kickstarter campaign concluded, we can expect to see the Ambient One shipping to backers this year. Price estimates are around $240.
Ambient One can be programmed for specific spaces, and gives realtime updates on air quality.
Paired with an intuitive app, the Ambient One is helpful in reading not just particulate matter, but also VOCs, CO2, and NOx.
Activities like kiln firing can increase air pollutants, reminding you to take control of your air quality, or take precautions, like wearing a mask.
We like the way the Ambient One feels like a natural addition to the art studio.
