Identifying inaccuracy in air quality detection
First Claim
1. An automated method of detecting measurement inaccuracy in an air quality detection system, the method comprising:
- receiving a first air quality measurement from a first sensor located at a first location along an air flow pathway;
receiving a second air quality measurement from a second sensor located at the first location along an air flow pathway;
determining a difference between the first air quality measurement and the second air quality measurement in order to identify a mismatch between the first sensor and the second sensor;
comparing the mismatch to a maximum threshold value; and
adjusting at least one physical operating parameter of the air quality detection system if the difference exceeds the maximum threshold value, wherein the at least one physical operating parameter comprises at least one of fan speed and heat.

Abstract
An automated method of detecting measurement inaccuracy in an air quality detection system includes: receiving an air quality measurement from at least two sensors; determining a difference among the received air quality measurements; and comparing the difference to a threshold value. A system that detects measurement inaccuracy in an air quality detection includes: multiple smart residue avoidance and inaccuracy detection (SRAID) devices; and a server. An SRAID device includes: a plurality of air quality detection sensors; a controller able to: receive measurements from the plurality of air quality detection sensors; calculate a difference among the received measurements; and generate a notification if the difference exceeds a threshold value; and a communication module able to communicate with at least one of a server and an air flow controller device.
