Studies show that the danger of exposure to COVID-19 is reduced when the level of CO2 is below 600ppm, relative humidity is between 40-60%, and there are no or very minimal levels of PM2.5.\n \n \n \n \n \n AmbiAir is a low-cost solution that combines discreet, multi-deployable hardware with Ambilytics, an intelligent platform that digs through the vast quantities of location-based data, to quickly and easily understand the performance of these critical risk drivers, identifying risk hot-spots in real-time, and predicting when safe levels are likely to be breached. \n \n \n \n \n \n The first in a range of air quality solutions being released by Ambisense this year, AmbiAir combines multiple tools and techniques useful to air quality professionals to understand the behaviour of air quality pollutants.\n \n \n \n \n \n Pires has a circa 13% interest in SVV. SVV is a venture capital fund focused on investing in the software technology sector with a specific focus on artificial intelligence, the internet of things and immersive technologies.\n \n \n \n \n \n Peter Redmond, Chairman of Pires commented: \n \n \n \n \n \n \"Ambisense's launch of AmbiAir, a solution designed to help manage, assess, and predict the COVID-19 risk in commercial and public buildings, is ...
