Human Practices

As stated before, this CO sensor would be useful in many ways: <p>1. It would not require constant power, this means that you could use it in locations with easy access to power, such as third world countries, underground places/mines, portable/handheld, etc.

2.It would be small and compact, allowing for easy transportation, meaning it could be carried by people everywhere, providing constant protection.

3. It would create a smell, this means that deaf and blind people would be able to be aware of it, as well as allowing people with headphones or ear protection to sniff out CO. This Means that it would have many uses beyond the ordinary electric, roof-bound, carbon monoxide sensor.
