Abstract
Humans spend most of their time indoors, where air quality and comfort are crucial to health and well-being. Elevated CO2 levels in buildings can reduce cognitive function, discomfort, and health issues. Indoor CO2 monitoring has emerged as a key focus in the literature, particularly in residential buildings, as it can play a vital role in helping to maintain adequate ventilation rates. The growing smart home market demands seamless integration and control, which are essential for implementing IAQ sensing devices. However, interoperability barriers between platforms and devices continue to hinder smart home adoption. To address these challenges, Matter protocol is starting to appear in the market. In this work, a wireless CO2 sensor is developed based on ESP32-C6 and SCD40 and integrated into a created Matter-enabled ecosystem formed with the Home Assistant open-source platform. The utilized hardware and software enable the usage of two different wireless communication technologies, WiFi and Thread, enhancing compatibility. The study highlights the rapid and seamless onboarding of the developed CO2 monitoring device into smart home ecosystems using the Matter protocol. As a result, once the device is successfully added to the ecosystem, the measurements can be accessed and analyzed through a mobile application, forming an IoT environment.

Abstract
This paper addresses the persistent rise in motorcycle-related fatalities, even as overall road deaths decline, by introducing an adaptive Fuzzy System based on the Takagi-Sugeno model. The system evaluates parameters such as acceleration and lean angle to classify rider behavior into categories such as normal, aggressive, or dangerous, providing timely feedback aimed at promoting safer driving practices. A key component of this approach is the Local Outlier Factor (LOF) algorithm, which identifies hazardous behaviors by quantifying deviations from standard riding patterns, thereby allowing the establishment of adaptive safety thresholds. By integrating fuzzy logic, the system offers refined decision-making capabilities in complex riding conditions, enhancing active safety systems such as traction and braking controls. This work emphasizes the critical role of behavior-based insights in mitigating accidents, particularly since rider actions are a major contributing factor to motorcycle incidents.

Improving energy efficiency in buildings is critical for supporting sustainable growth in the construction sector. In this context, the implementation of passive solar solutions in the building envelope plays an important role. Trombe wall is a passive solar system that presents great potential for passive solar heating purposes. However, its performance can be enhanced when the Internet of Things is applied. This study employs a multi-domain smart system based on Matter-enabled IoT technology for maximizing Trombe wall functionality using appropriate 3D-printed ventilation grids. The system includes ESP32-C6 microcontrollers with temperature sensors and ventilation grids controlled by actuated servo motors. The system is automated with a Raspberry Pi 5 running Home Assistant OS with Matter Server. The integration of the Matter protocol provides end-to-end interoperability and secure communication, avoiding traditional systems based on MQTT. This work demonstrates the technical feasibility of implementing smart ventilation control for Trombe walls using a Matter-enabled infrastructure. The system proves to be capable of executing real-time vent management based on predefined temperature thresholds. This setup lays the foundation for scalable and interoperable thermal automation in passive solar systems, paving the way for future optimizations and addicional implementations, namely in order to improve indoor thermal comfort in smart and more efficient buildings.

Abstract
Ensuring food quality and safety is a growing challenge in the food industry, where early detection of contamination or spoilage is crucial. Using gas sensors combined with Artificial Intelligence (AI) offers an innovative and effective approach to food identification, improving quality control and minimizing health risks. This study aims to evaluate food identification strategies using supervised learning techniques applied to data collected by the BME Development Kit, equipped with the BME688 sensor. The dataset includes measurements of temperature, pressure, humidity, and, particularly, gas composition, ensuring a comprehensive analysis of food characteristics. The methodology explores two strategies: a neural network model trained using Bosch BME AI-Studio software, and a more flexible, customizable approach that applies multiple predictive algorithms, including DT, LR, kNN, NB, and SVM. The experiments were conducted to analyze the effectiveness of both approaches in classifying different food samples based on gas emissions and environmental conditions. The results demonstrate that combining electronic noses (E-Noses) with machine learning (ML) provides high accuracy in food identification. While the neural network model from Bosch follows a structured and optimized learning approach, the second methodology enables a more adaptable exploration of various algorithms, offering greater interpretability and customization. Both approaches yielded high predictive performance, with strong classification accuracy across multiple food samples. However, performance variations depend on the characteristics of the dataset and the algorithm selection. A critical analysis suggests that optimizing sensor calibration, feature selection, and consideration of environmental parameters can further enhance accuracy. This study confirms the relevance of AI-driven gas analysis as a promising tool for food quality assessment.

Abstract
Road safety is a global issue, with road-related accidents being one of the biggest leading causes of death. Motorcyclists are especially susceptible to injuries and death when there is an accident, due to the inherent characteristics of motorcycles. Accident prevention is paramount. To improve motorcycle safety, this paper discusses and proposes a preliminary architecture of a system composed of various sensors, to assist and warn the rider of potentially dangerous situations such as front and back collision warnings, pedestrian collision warnings, and road monitoring.
