Video monitoring device comprising a computing unit, a camera, a communication interface, and a volatile organic compounds sensor configured to measure at least a concentration of organic compounds in a room of interest, said computing unit being configured to record the concentrations of organic compounds reported by the volatile organic compounds sensor, and configured to send images taken by the camera and volatile organic compounds concentrations to a remote entity, such as a smartphone over a wireless link.
A video monitoring device for monitoring air quality in a room of interest, comprising a computing unit, a camera, a communication interface, and a volatile organic compounds sensor configured to measure concentrations of organic compounds in the room of interest and to provide an aggregate concentration level of organic compounds which combines all the organic compounds present in the air of the room of interest, including butane, propane, octane, methanol, ethanol, propanol and butanol, and aromatic compounds including benzene, ethylbenzene, and toluene, said computing unit being configured to record the concentrations of organic compounds reported by the volatile organic compounds sensor, and configured to send images taken by the camera and volatile organic compounds concentrations to a remote entity of a user, so that the user can decide whether it is required to ventilate/air the room.
A method to monitor events in a room and an air quality in the room, the method comprising:
