Business Wire
ams AG (SIX:AMS), a leading provider of high performance sensors
and analog ICs, today announced that the new Komfy™ Switch with
camera by D-Link features the ams iAQ-core indoor air quality
module.
The iAQ-core is a miniaturized, low-power gas sensor module that
measures the indoor air quality with unrivaled accuracy. It uses a
MEMS based VOC sensor component and provides an output of ppb TVOC
and ppm CO2 equivalent units via an I2C interface in response to
changes in ambient levels of pollutants commonly found in indoor
environments.
The Komfy Switch with camera by D-Link is more than a smart
light switch. Featuring a Full HD 1080p camera with 16-feet night
vision and environmental sensors, users are provided with peace of
mind by knowing exactly what’s going on at home. Built-in sensors
deliver useful information, including motion, sound, temperature,
power consumption, air quality, and humidity detection. The Komfy
mobile app and free cloud service provide the ability to view,
control and manage the solution from virtually anywhere via a
smartphone or tablet.
The iAQ-core directly measures ambient concentrations of a broad
range of reducing gases associated with bad air quality such as
alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, organic acids, amines as well as
aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons, which can be harmful to human
and animal health at high levels. These VOC measurements provide a
more useful measure of indoor air quality than the carbon dioxide
sensors commonly used for air quality monitoring today, since CO2
concentrations are strongly affected by the presence of human
beings and animals, which exhale the gas.
The iAQ-core VOC measurements are displayed in the free Komfy
app, which is availale on any compatible iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch
device. The app is easy-to-use and delivers insights that help
users make their home safer and brighter by providing a simple way
to interact with lights and Komfy sensors.
“The Komfy Switch with camera by D-Link provides consumers with
a wide array of notifications and features to ensure things at home
are confortable and safe”, said AJ Wang, CTO, D-Link
Systems, Inc. “The technology and support provided by ams
enabled us to deliver a simple and credible measure of air quality
with the iAQ-core detecting volatitle organic compounds in the home
to ensure normal, healthy ranges.”
The iAQ-core indoor air quality module is available now in
production volumes. Unit pricing is $24.70 in order quantities of
1,000.
