Mobile Urban Pollution: Prototype Three


Summary | Rucksack Mounting | Jacket Mounting

Summary

These are 3rd, 4th, etc. prototypes. They are alternative logging devices for particular needs.


Rucksack Mounting

The tea-tray pollution monitor is stable and is being used in various trials. However for the commuter trials it has been found to be inconvenient solely for the reason that the tray is fiddly to mount on a bike securely. We have built devices that can be carried on the outside of a cyclist's rucksack. This removes the rechargable GPS component. This was also slightly fiddly to operate. The downside is that the overall battery lifetime of the logger will be lower. We were using the SysOnChip CF GPS unit (< Order Here), but it seems to have a non-standard MMCX connector.

The software is exactly the same as proto2 and will remain the same.
