We demonstrate an urban crowd sensing application for monitoring air quality by use of specially-designed wearable sensors and mobile phones. The application is built upon the OpenIoT platform 1 with the goal to support context-aware and energy-efficient acquisition and filtering of sensor data in mobile environments while ensuring adequate sensing coverage. We demonstrate how sensors and mobile devices jointly collect and share data of interest to measure air quality. In particular, we outline the main features of our wearable air quality sensors, present the data acquisition process as well as the user view of the system, which, in contrast to similar applications, provides a personalized real-time notification mechanism to mobile application users. The solution was used in an air quality measurement campaign “Sense the Zagreb Air” performed in the City of Zagreb, Croatia, in early July 2014 with 20 participants.
