Urban residents and individuals who have respiratory vulnerabilities face increased exposure to particulate pollution, mold, and airborne allergens that undermine respiratory health and the daily wellbeing and productivity of these people. While air monitors traditionally exist as stationary devices and masks function as passive barriers, neither alone provides real time feedback, informational metrics, or emotional reassurance.
