14 August 2020 Current Affairs:Scientific and Industrial Research Centre (GVP-SIRC) and GVP College of Engineering, Visakhapatnam, has developed an indigenous photonic system for real-time remote monitoring of air quality parameters. The system titled Air Unique-quality Monitoring (AUM) was developed under the Clean Air Research Initiative of the Department of Science and Technology.

Air Unique-quality Monitoring System:
The AUM system is an innovative application of the principles of statistical mechanics, laser backscattering, optoelectronics, artificial intelligence (AI), machine/deep learning, and Internet of Things. 
AUM can identify, classify, and quantify various pollutants simultaneously of orders of less than one part per billion and meteorological parameters, with sensitivity, very high precision, and accuracy.
AUM was successfully evaluated during laboratory trials with gold standards in collaboration with EffecTech, UK.
The system is operated by Karnataka State Pollution Control Board under the aegis of the Central Pollution Control Board of India.
The system is capable of simultaneous detection and quantification of all air quality parameters.
It offers a number of merits like portablility, compactibility, low powered nature and economical over any of the currently available conventional systems.
This system is expected to boost India’s efforts towards self-reliance in high-end technologies. 
It can additionally be instrumental in supporting the endeavours in improving the nation’s health and economy.
