The Acer Air Monitor works by offering users real-time feedback regarding the level of quality that the air in their space has. The Acer Air Monitor can detect carbon dioxide, VOCs, particulate matter as well as temperature and humidity. The build-in LEDs will change color to let you know if the air isn't as good as it should be.

The Acer Air Monitor tracks home air quality and also features IFTTT technology, which means it can be programmed to turn on an air purifier if the quality of the air isn't its best.

2. Integrated Air Quality Systems - Opportunities for disruptive innovation include creating integrated air quality systems that not only monitor air quality but also filter and purify indoor air.
3. Air Quality Data Analytics - Opportunities for disruptive innovation include developing predictive analytics using air quality data for cities and buildings to identify potential health hazards and environmental risks.
Industry Implications

2. Air Purification - Companies in the air purification industry can pursue opportunities to integrate air quality monitoring into their products and offer customers a comprehensive solution for indoor air quality.
3. Environmental Monitoring - Companies in the environmental monitoring industry can expand their offerings to include indoor air quality monitoring devices for households and buildings.
