Patent ID: 8086407

Claim:
An environmental monitoring device, comprising: a plurality of sensors being of different types, the different types of sensors obtaining values of different environmental parameters; a control unit to receive the obtained values of the environmental. parameters and to compare the obtained values against predetermined standards and criteria which define parameter ranges of the different environmental parameters; and a display unit to display a real-time air quality report comprising: a user-friendly interpretation of the obtained values based on the parameter ranges; a simultaneous forecast to provide an instant level assessment of at least one environmental parameter not obtained by the plurality of sensors including at least one selected from the group consisting of: formaldehyde, airborne bacteria, radon and nitrogen monoxide; and a recommendation in response to the obtained values based on the parameter ranges that is easily understood by a non-technical user; wherein real-time analysis of the obtained values of the different environmental parameters is performed by considering the interrelationship of the obtained values of the different environmental parameters in order to interpret the obtained values and make a recommendation based on the obtained values.
