Introduction
Air and sound pollution is a growing issue these days. Air pollution and noise pollution often go hand-in-hand, hand-in-hand, as some of the most heavily air-polluted areas are also those near loud busy roadways and airports. Air pollution is due to toxic or radioactive gases that introduced into the atmosphere as a result of human activity. Dirty air that could injure human health or property, and nature. There are many factor that effect the quality qualit y of air such as waste from factories, combustion f rom automobile and from nature causes such as volcano eruption. Air pollution can effects to all living things in many ways with both short-term or long-term.
Noise pollution is when there is lot sound that is unwanted or disrupt one’s quality of life. Sound becomes undesirable when it disturb our daily activities such as sleeping, working or during conversations. There are lot sources of noise pollution such as from industrial, construction work, road traffic and many more. Unlike air pollution, noise is an underrated environmental environmental problem because the fact that we cannot see, smell or taste it. The effect of noise or sound pollution is not just disturbing, it also can effect human health such as interfering human hearing. For example, auditory fatigue and deafness. Sound pollution also can effect physiological psychological health such as high blood blood pressure, stress related illness and sleep disruption.
IOT or internet of things is an upcoming technology that makes use of internet to control/monitor electronic/mechanical devices, automobiles and other physical devices connected to the internet. IOT gives user the ability to control more than digital things easily through a comfortable GUI over the internet.
There are some advantage and disadvantages of IoT. The first advantage is Automation and Control. Due to physical objects getting connected and controlled digitally and centrally with wireless infrastructure, there is a large amount of automation and control in the workings. Without Wit hout human intervention, the machines
are able to communicate with each other leading t o faster and timely output. The second most obvious advantage of IoT is monitoring. Knowing the exact quantity of supplies or the air quality in your home, hospital or noise quantity on your town can further provide more information that could not have previously been collected easily. Furthermore, monitoring the expiration of products can and will improve safety.
There are disadvantages of IoT such as in privac y and security. With all of this IoT data being transmitted, the risk of losing privacy increases. For instance, how well encrypted will the data be kept and transmitted with? Do you want your neighbors or employers to know what medications that you are taking or your financial situation?
For IoT project, we propose an air quality and sound pollution monitoring system that allows us to monitor and check air quality as well as sound pollution in a particular areas through IoT. The system uses gas sensors to sense presence of harmful gases or compounds in the air and constantly transmit this data to microcontroller. The system also keeps measuring sound level and reports it to the online server over IoT. The sensors interact with microcontroller which processes this data and transmits it over internet. This allows authorities to monitor air pollution in different areas and take action acti on against it. Authorities also can keep a watch on the noise pollution near schools, hospitals and no honking areas, and if system detects ai r quality and noise issues it alerts authorities so they can take measures to control the issue.

Software specification
1.
Arduino Compiler - The Arduino Integrated Development Environment or
Arduino Software (IDE) contains a text editor for writ ing code, a message area, a text console, a toolbar with buttons for common functions and a series of menus. It connects to the Arduino and Genuino hardware to upload programs and communicate with them. 2.
Microcontroller Programming Language: C++ - C++ was used as a
programming language for Arduino Arduino to program the microcontroller to run a task.
