The purpose of Project Atmosniffer is to develop a scientific and commercial air-quality monitoring and recording tool.

This project has undergone many transformations over the years since its birth and is continuing to be improved during the period of my contributions. Project Atmosniffer has provided me a unique opportunity to enhance my computer science (CS) core skills. From networking, ticket tracking, version control, data analysis, and hands-on experience in the lab.

The atmosniffer has changed much of its hardware. The current version of the Atmosniffer device, upgraded the following components: microprocessor, gas board, dynamic sensor, OLED screen. The new version offers new features like a new CO2 sensor and WiFi connectivity.

More details covering the CS skills utilized in the development of new components and features of the Atmosniffer device will be presented.
