Abstract
Most human time is spent indoors, and due to the pandemic, monitoring indoor air quality (IAQ) has become more crucial. In this study, an IoT (Internet of Things) architecture is implemented to monitor IAQ parameters, including CO2 and particulate matter (PM). An ESP32-C6-based device is developed to measure sensor data and send them, using the MQTT protocol, to a remote InfluxDBv2 database instance, where the data are stored and visualized. The Python 3.11 scripting programming language is used to automate Flux queries to the database, allowing a more in-depth data interpretation. The implemented system allows to analyze two measured scenarios during sleep: one with the door slightly open and one with the door closed. Results indicate that sleeping with the door slightly open causes CO2 levels to ascend slowly and maintain lower concentrations compared to sleeping with the door closed, where CO2 levels ascend faster and the maximum recommended values are exceeded. This demonstrates the benefits of ventilation in maintaining IAQ. The developed system can be used for sensing in different environments, such as schools or offices, so an IAQ assessment can be made. Based on the generated data, predictive models can be designed to support decisions on intelligent natural ventilation systems, achieving an optimized, efficient, and ubiquitous solution to moderate the IAQ.

Abstract
Predictive maintenance (PDM) is emerging as a strong transformative tool within Industry 4.0, enabling significant improvements in the sustainability and efficiency of manufacturing processes. This in-depth literature review, which follows the PRISMA 2020 framework, examines how PDM is being implemented in several areas of the manufacturing industry, focusing on how it is taking advantage of technological advances such as artificial intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT). The presented in-depth evaluation of the technological principles, implementation methods, economic consequences, and operational improvements based on academic and industrial sources and new innovations is performed. According to the studies, integrating CDM can significantly increase machine uptime and reliability while reducing maintenance costs. In addition, the transition to PDM systems that use real-time data to predict faults and plan maintenance more accurately holds out promising prospects. However, there are still gaps in the overall methodologies for measuring the return on investment of PDM implementations, suggesting an essential research direction.

Abstract
Problem: Portable ECG/sEMG acquisition systems for telemedicine often lack application flexibility (e.g., limited configurability, signal validation) and efficient wireless data handling. Methodology: A modular biosignal acquisition system with up to 8 channels, 24-bit resolution and configurable sampling (1–4 kHz) is proposed, featuring per-channel gain/source adjustments, internal MUX-based reference drive, and visual electrode integrity monitoring; Bluetooth® transmits data via a bit-wise packet structure (83.92% smaller than JSON, 7.28 times faster decoding with linear complexity based on input size). Results: maximum 6.7 µVrms input-referred noise; harmonic signal correlations >99.99%, worst-case THD of -53.03 dBc, and pulse wave correlation >99.68% in frequency-domain with maximum NMSE% of 6e-6%; and 22.3-hour operation (3.3 Ah battery @ 150 mA). Conclusion: The system enables high-fidelity, power-efficient acquisition with validated signal integrity and adaptable multi-channel acquisition, addressing gaps in portable biosensing. © 2025 The Authors
