and display air quality data would be a useful tool for people. To make this project a reality, you would need to develop a sensor that can detect pollutants and integrate it into the smart watch. The sensor could detect pollutants such as nitrogen dioxide, sulfur dioxide, ozone, and particulate matter. The data could then be transmitted to the smart watch and displayed to the user. To make the smart watch user-friendly, it should have an easy-to-read display that shows the pollution levels in real time It could also have a feature that alerts the user when pollution levels reach a certain threshold, indicating that it's time to take necessary precautions such as wearing a mask or avoiding outdoor activities. To make the project more effective, you could also consider integrating a GPS module into the smartwatch which would allow the device to track the user's location and provide location-specific pollution data. This would be especially useful for people who travel frequently or live in areas with high levels of pollution. Overall, a smartwatch that detects and displays air quality data would be a valuable tool for individuals concerned about their exposure to air pollution. It could help make more informed decisions about when to go outside, what protective measures to take, and when to seek medical attention if necessary.
The level of pollution is increasing rapidly due to factors like industries, urbanization, increase in population, and vehicle use which can affect human health. An IOT-based Air Pollution Monitoring System is used to monitor air quality. When the air quality goes down beyond a certain level, indicating the presence of harmful gases like CO2andCO, the system triggers an alarm and vibration in a smart watch. If the harmful gases continue to increase and the oxygen level decreases, the alarm will continuously alert the user for 5 minutes. The smartwatch will make an emergency call if the oxygen level does not improve. Keywords: Pic-Microcontroller, CO2Sensor, Toxic gas sensor, GSM Module, IoT.
1. Introduction Air pollution can significantly impact human health, including respiratory problems, heart disease, stroke, and cancer. It can also affect the environment, such as causing acid rain, damaging crops, and reducing biodiversity. Sources of air pollution include industrial activities, transportation, burning of fossil fuels, agriculture, and natural sources such as wild fires and dust in storms. The effects of air pollution can be local, regional, or global, depending on the nature of the pollutant and its dispersion in the atmosphere. To address air pollution, governments and organizations have implemented various measures, such as regulations, policies, and programs. For example, emission standards have been implemented for vehicles and industries, renewable energy sources have been promoted, and public awareness campaigns have been launched. Individuals can also take actions to reduce air pollution, such as using public transportation, carpooling, biking, or walking instead of driving, reducing energy consumption, and properly disposing of

1.1 Contribution of the Work: Air Pollution detection in Smartwatch, which measures the accurate percentage of toxic gases in the environment. It also monitors the person’s health. An air quality monitoring system prototype was proposed based on the following electronic components: a microcontroller, GSM module, carbon dioxide (CO2), and toxic gas levelsensor. This device senses the quality of air and displays it in the form of a percentage. The air quality goes down beyond a certain level, indicating the presence of harmful gases like methane, and ethane that triggers the alarm and vibrates in the smartwatch. If the oxygen level decreases the alarm will continuously alert the user for five minutes. If oxygen level
