Make your experience with Altruist Air Quality sensors even more independent
Altruist Node is the connection point of the sensors.social open data set air quality network, and you can keep it on your shelf. It collects readings from sensors in your area, shows them on your own map and relays them to the Robonomics open source cloud.
Explore real air quality sensor data. See AQI, historical data, color-coded charts, outdoor noise, and detailed environmental analytics — all on an open-source map, connect through your own hardware-cloud-node.

Why run a node
- Your neighbourhood's air data runs through hardware you own.
- One node serves a whole street: every neighbour with an Altruist can join.
- Everything is open source: inspect it, change it, move it.
What's in the box
- Raspberry Pi 5 in a 3D-printed case with active cooling
- Power supply
- Open source software installed and configured by us: Sensors Connectivity (receives sensor data), RoSeMAN (stores and serves readings) and your own copy of the sensors.social map
