In this article, assistive technology has been developed for Mobile SMS notification and Email which can be used in real time for the indoor environment and provide the information of indoor Air Quality Index (AQI). AQI is generally used to give the severity of pollution level to building occupants. This assistive technology monitors indoor environmental parameters such as temperature, humidity, heat-index, carbon monoxide, and carbon dioxide which are responsible to affect occupant's fitness and indoor workplace if not properly ventilated. This technology consists of AQI monitoring sensor node having electrochemical and non-dispersive infrared gas sensors. ESP8266-01 wi-fi module is being used for AQI data transmission. Toxic gas parameter values will be measured in parts per million (PPM). The environmental information measured by the sensors will be sent to building occupants through Mobile SMS and Email.
