The PSAQ pin badge utilises nanotechnology and the exceptional properties of Graphene to miniaturise a highly sensitive gas sensor into a wearable badge. Our CEO's journey began at 14 when she won the individual prize in the UK Government's Youth Industrial Strategy competition and the UK Space Agency's SatelLife competition in 2020\. She used that as momentum and funding towards more product development. Since then, PSAQ has gained support and resources from various organisations such as Bridging the Gap accelerator programme with Graphene at the University of Manchester, the Galileo Masters incubator programme in partnership with the University of Nottingham, and mentors and networks connected to the UK and European Space Agencies.PSAQ comprises two vital technological components: the pin badge, which collects air quality data within 20cm of a person's location, and a complementary mobile app to show that data meaningfully. Therefore, the PSAQ service provides an end-to-end air quality monitoring solution that allows everyone to understand the air around them. Furthermore, by wearing the pin badge and using the complementary app, everyone can use that information to make changes to their day-to-day routines, such as walking to school or cycling for leisure, based on the data available to show current pollution exposure levels.To summarise, the PSAQ pin badge is a revolutionary wearable device that provides hyperlocal air quality data with accuracy and convenience. Graphene makes the pin badge lightweight and durable, making it comfortable for continuous wear. The mobile app also provides insights for people to identify real-time pollution hotspots and make the changes needed to protect their health.

PSAQ引脚徽章利用纳米技术和石墨烯的特殊特性，将高灵敏度的气体传感器小型化为可穿戴的徽章。我们首席执行官的旅程始于14岁，当时她在英国政府的青年工业战略竞赛和英国航天局的2020年卫星生活竞赛中获得了个人奖。她以此为动力，为更多的产品开发提供资金。从那时起，PSAQ获得了各种组织的支持和资源，如曼彻斯特大学与石墨烯的桥梁差距加速器项目，与诺丁汉大学合作的伽利略大师孵化器项目，以及与英国和欧洲航天局联系的导师和网络。PSAQ由两个重要的技术组件组成：一个是收集个人位置20厘米范围内空气质量数据的胸针，另一个是一个辅助的移动应用程序，用于有意义地显示数据。因此，PSAQ服务提供了一个端到端的空气质量监测解决方案，让每个人都能了解周围的空气。此外，通过佩戴徽章和使用配套的应用程序，每个人都可以利用这些信息来改变他们的日常生活，比如步行上学或骑自行车休闲，根据现有数据显示当前的污染暴露水平。总而言之，PSAQ针标是一种革命性的可穿戴设备，可以准确、方便地提供超局部空气质量数据。石墨烯使别针徽章重量轻，耐用，使其舒适的持续佩戴。该移动应用程序还为人们提供了识别实时污染热点的见解，并做出必要的改变来保护他们的健康。
