To safeguard people by detecting the surrounding air quality, a smartphone based sensor ‘Inhale’ is invented by Fredrik Krafft that allows you to learn about the air around you and helps you organize your day in a safer way!  

It’s made to fit on the back of a Moto Z phone or any other smartphone. The sensor provides real-time environmental data information and you will always know when it is safe for going out.

It measures PM 2.5, Pollen, Ozone, CO2, Humidity, Temperature and other air pollutants from the governmental organizations to prepare the detailed air quality maps.   Fredrik got inspiration for developing this device when he was on a run around the University of Southern California campus. 

He felt the debilitating respiratory effects due to air pollution and decided to invent a device that keeps people away from the environmental pollution.   

“Be active, live peacefully and feel the freedom within” – CEO Fredrik Krafft  

The Process of Inhale  

Using the power of the smartphone the sensor sends the data to their software which synthesizes it down into metrics that are comprehensive and simple.   

The sensor is powered by the power from the smartphone and the app will be available for download from the App Store soon.
