Idea
Climate change has already become one of the most important challenges humanity faces. Carbon dioxide, the major greenhouse gas, is 'heating up' the Earth's atmosphere as they have an absorption peak in infrared wavelengths.
This project aims to build a portable and accurate carbon dioxide concentration measurement device.
Possible measurement mechanisms: 1.
Setup
We plan for a setup as a michaelson interferometer with a gas chamber on one arm to fill in contaminants.
Measurements
....
