GSS has designed a new CO2 sensor suitable for in-cabin commercial aircraft deployment. The sensors can be used to optimise in-cabin air quality by monitoring CO2 levels in near real-time.

With the support of the UK Aerospace Technology Institute, GSS was a part of a British consortium consisting of several major aerospace companies, and National Physical Laboratory in a project titled U-CAIR (UK ATI Cabin AIR) to develop the technology needed to improve in-cabin air quality whilst reducing airline operating costs. The sensor was designed to be incorporated into an adaptive aircraft Environmental Control System (ECS). Information from an array of the sensors can be used to adjust incoming fresh air to improve aircraft efficiency and reduce the impact of airborne pathogens like COVID-19.
