Airlytix ES1 environment monitor runs ESPHome for Home Assistant integration

Airlytix ES1 environment monitor is an ESP32-based environment tracking device that runs ESPHome. The device tracks various environmental parameters like temperature, humidity, air quality (PM1.0, PM2.5, PM4, PM10, VOCs, NOx, CO2), barometric pressure, ambient light, and noise levels. To make things even more interesting, the device ships with a compact 3D printed case and can be integrated with Home Assistant for smart home automation.

Previously we have written about similar environment monitor devices like the Sonoff SC WiFi, V-Air Monitro, and devices like Arduino MKR IoT Carrier Rev2, Radair mini gateway, and Nicla Sense ME  designed for environment monitor applications.

Airlytix ES1 Environment Monitor Assembly

As you can see from the specification there is not much hardware-related information available at the time of writing but, the only thing that I could find is that the specification for the ambient light sensor that after looking at the code for a bit which you can find in the Airlytix GitHub repository, along with the STEP and STL files for the case.

The device also includes an unspecified sound sensor (probably a microphone) and an unspecified barometric pressure sensor which can be used to measure sudden changes in air pressure, an early indication of an upcoming storm.
