While it's not too hard to get general information about the air quality in a particular city, it's considerably tougher if you're looking to break things down on a neighborhood by neighborhood basis, or get actual real-time information. The folks at Sensaris seem to think they can change that with this new GPS-equipped wearable sensor of theirs, however, which is not only able to monitor air quality, but noise pollution as well. Of course, that information isn't all that useful on its own, so the device makes use of its built-in Bluetooth to link up with your cellphone and broadcast the data to a central service, which in turn makes it available to the public at large. What's more, while there's no word of it being put into use 'round these parts, it is apparently going to be deployed in Paris, which Sensaris hopes will just be the first of many cities to hop on board.

This just in, Sensaris wearable sensor also promises to repel 99.9% of all pussy you will come into contact with; with the exception of moms and nerdy girls.
What's wrong wit Nerdy girls?
Why wearable? Just get the city councils/municipalities or even private companies (Google?) to install these everywhere.
Just what I always wanted!
This technology has been around for decades..... the "get-beaten-up" technology
its good to see that improvements have been made
Get it in black, and I'll buy it, but baby blue is just wrong. It looks totally wimpy. >.>
So does Engadget.
Engadget should totally sue Sensaris over "baby blue craziness" infringement.
umm. these arent new. we get field staff to wear monitors at least once a year to check levels of a variety of environmental pollutants - dust, chemicals, noise etc.
sure they dont have gps attached but if specific location data is required you should really use a decent fixed monitor.
can i see my perks and s.p.e.c.i.a.l. too?
So, that's what a tricorder looked like in ancient times.
Noise pollution eh, well they should double the range and memory capacity for this place, goddamnit (ironically churchbells play a substantial role, I can't believe how deep in the middle ages the world still is).
damn liberals
looks kinda tight. those veins are exploding out of his hand right after the band.
Nah he's just not fat, you must be in the US since you never seem to have seen a non fat person eh :)
