Embedded CNN-Based AI System for Real-Time Air Quality Monitoring and Prediction in Smart Cities

Project Code :TEMBMA3877

Objective

To design and implement an embedded CNN-based AI system that continuously monitors real-time air quality parameters using environmental sensors and processes the data locally for efficient analysis in smart city environments. To develop a predictive model using convolutional neural networks (CNN) that accurately classifies pollution levels and forecasts future air quality trends, enabling timely alerts and data-driven urban environmental management.

Abstract

The Embedded CNN-Based AI System for Air Quality Monitoring and Prediction in Smart Cities is developed to monitor environmental pollution levels and predict air quality conditions using Artificial Intelligence and embedded computing technology. The proposed system utilizes multiple gas and environmental sensors including PMS5003 for particulate matter measurement, MQ-135 and MQ-2 sensors for harmful gas detection, and a DHT11 sensor for temperature and humidity monitoring. A Raspberry Pi serves as the central processing unit to collect and process sensor data. A Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) model is implemented to analyze environmental parameters and predict air quality conditions based on sensor readings. The monitored air quality parameters are displayed through an LCD module for local observation. Whenever abnormal pollution levels are detected, a buzzer alert is activated to provide immediate warning. This intelligent system enables accurate pollution monitoring and predictive analysis, supporting smart city environments by improving environmental awareness, public safety, and pollution management through AI-based embedded solutions.
