Mobile Physics, a startup company developing a sensor package for Android smartphones.
That can measure air quality, smoke levels, and other factors, giving users a better idea of how safe their environment is.
Space Observation by Mobile Physics
Mobile Physics, the startup company, announced its new air monitoring technology.
Which it calls “Space Observation”, powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip set from Qualcomm Semiconductors, released earlier this year.
Phone manufacturers can use Mobile Physics’ technology, and it can be accessed through an app that is pre-installed on phones.
While many people use the sensors in the Apple Watch smartwatch to measure health metrics.
Such as oxygen levels in the air, Mobile Physics uses the smartphone’s sensors and cameras to determine air quality specifications.
Including purity levels, smoke levels, ultraviolet exposure rates, temperature, and more, even if the phone is in the user’s pocket.
While no smartphones have been equipped with the new technology yet.
The company has tested it on the Google Pixel 8 and Xiaomi 11 Ultra.
As these phones have the basic sensors needed to use the air scan technology.
A promising development
Mobile Physics’ technology is a promising development that could help users to be more aware of their surroundings.
The ability to measure air quality from a smartphone is especially useful in areas with poor air quality.
Such as cities or industrial areas.
The technology is still in its early stages.
But it has the potential to be a valuable tool for people who are concerned about their health and the environment.

Some potential benefits of Space Observation technology:
- Users can be more aware of their exposure to harmful pollutants.
- Users can make informed decisions about where to live, work, and play.
- Users can take steps to reduce their exposure to pollutants.
It remains to be seen whether Mobile Physics’ technology will be widely adopted by phone manufacturers.
However, the potential benefits of the technology are clear, and it could play an important role in improving air quality and public health.
