Good tech for wildfire preparation.
If you live near in a wildfire zone you basically need our app in your wildfire preparation kit. Thanks to the latest dust sensors, combined with EPA data, we have a unique perspective of how the Colby Fire affected our air quality in Los Angeles. Finally, the technology is affordable that let’s you take control of your indoor air quality in these kinds of situations. If you live in a wildfire zone you might want to make this tech part of your wildfire preparation kit. Although the EPA has declared an “Action Day” for our area today [originally published: Jan 16, 2014], we’re not seeing a big impact in air quality where we are (near Beverly Hills) yet. EPA has PM2.5 at “moderate” which is in the yellow, but fairly typical for LA (and by no means the worst we have seen, thanks to automobiles, not forest fires.) With air purification (check out our recommendations), our indoor air quality is actually pretty good at the moment.… Read the restInternet Of Things (IoT) Cisco CES talk
[Update: One of our most shared posts, although sharing counts were lost during the site migration.] Internet of Things and Home Automation big at CES this year Some of us were at CES looking at exhibits. Internet of Things (IOT) was hot this year. The home automation space was hot; home automation products are being increasing advanced and more app-integrated. (Currently available home automation offerings include Mi Casa, Smarthings, and revolv.) Of course, just after CES closed Google announced it was acquiring IOT play Nest, makers of an Internet-connected thermostat and smoke alarm. But there were plenty of other large players dangling in this space (none of them yet focusing much on air quality, although Cisco had a presentation which touched on allergies, home automation, and the Internet of Things). Cisco had a large exhibit there promoting the Internet of Everything (IOE), Cisco’s marketing term for IOT. Cisco explained that under Moore’s law, sensors will become cheap and ubiquitous.… Read the restBiofeedback, Wearables, and Fitness Video Games
This article was originally published by Acculation on another site. As we’ve discussed earlier, one of the reason “sensor laden devices” like smartphones, smartwatches, and the emerging Internet of Things category are so amazing is that all of their uses haven’t yet been invented. There are so many sensors jam-packed into these devices, that software developers are constantly figuring out how to come with novel ways to use these sensors together in newly invented ways. It’s a combination of a large number of sensors jammed into a small space, combined with powerful computers and innovative software that is bringing us into the future. Fitness video games are just one aspect of this wearables revolution. Treating Stress and Pulmonary Disease with Heart Rate Variability Feedback: StressEraser and … Nintendo? Around 2008 one of our team members bought a product called the StressEraser. (It was quite expensive then; it has since fallen to around $130.)… Read the restRecent Posts
