Taipei, Taiwan  – April 25, 2016
 

Edimax Technology, a leading networking solutions provider, announced the brand new Edimax AirBox air quality monitoring system and outlined the upcoming deployment of its pilot program across Taipei City.


In partnership with Academia Sinica and Realtek, more than 300 Edimax AirBox units – which accurately measure harmful PM2.5 levels in the air – will be deployed across Taipei City as part of Taipei City Government’s Smart City initiative. AirBox’s are connected to Edimax’s Cloud Platform and provide real-time data available with the free Edimax mobile app, with big-data analysis provided by Taiwan’s Academia Sinica, one of Taiwan’s premier academic institutions.

Featuring advanced Realtek Ameba chipsets, Edimax AirBox units are effective air-quality monitoring solutions at a time when air pollution issues are a growing concern for the general public.

The AirBox rollout in Taipei will be extended to other cities in Taiwan and followed by deployments in major cities abroad, providing invaluable air quality monitoring solutions for the general public, private enterprise, governments and public health institutions.
