Polkadot now keeps an open dataset of the planet’s air
Since April, home sensors in Cyprus, Koh Phangan, Réunion and 20+ countries have written more than 19 million air readings through Robonomics. Since 28 September the record lives on Polkadot. Not a roadmap promise: an archive anyone can open today, and a use of a blockchain whose main result is not financial.
Robonomics 5.0, part three: the devices and the people who use them
The last part of the series: the Altruist sensors that sit on balconies and desks, how their firmware is built and delivered, how every unit is tested before it ships, and what people see on sensors.social and in the new Android app.
Robonomics 5.0, part two: one signed envelope, from the sensor to the chain
The connectivity layer of Robonomics 5.0: a protobuf envelope the sensor signs once and nobody re-encodes, a message format squeezed to fit a LoRa packet, and a cloud pipeline that writes compressed batches of signed readings straight into the CPS pallet.
We Are Building an Open Ecosystem of the Future
Building and growing this kind of open-source ecosystem is our deep passion and mission. We'd be genuinely thrilled to see you join our community of users!
Comfort powered by open technologies
Since 2017, I have been actively involved in the project, applying and developing open-source smart home solutions based on Robonomics, making people’s lives in Cyprus more comfortable.
Cyberpunk is a choice in favor of privacy
Privacy today has become something like art. But it is a norm that everyone should have. Value your digital freedom and personal space.

I’ve been living with two Altruist bundles for almost three months now. Urban (dust, temperature, humidity, noise) on the veranda and in the kids’ room. Insight (CO2, VOC, temperature, humidity) in the kids’ room and the living room. … Home Assistant automations I’ve added along the way: floor lighting with an LED strip — red means don’t go outside, green means the air is fine. …
One street. Three locations. Different data. Urban walk with Altruist Environmental Monitor on Mariahilfer Straße, Vienna 🇦🇹 Delivery trucks were louder than a construction site, while particle levels stayed within normal range. Your environment can change within just a few meters.
Smart home in every one of 50 apartments — delivered by Pinout in Q3 2025 - Q1 2026. 🇨🇾 Residence 28, Limassol — CCS Stylianides Group 🇨🇾 Qube Residences, Paphos — INEX Group Fully local Home Assistant. Zigbee 3.0 everywhere. No cloud, no subscriptions, no vendor lock-in. Built by robotics engineers for people who actually live here.
More sensors. Less map clutter. sensors.social v4.1 groups nearby devices from the same owner, adds sensor-type icons, improves data quality warnings, and brings richer sharing previews.
Yesterday I was busy unloading 1150 kg of goods for the first @pinoutcloud contract 🤪 This is how much hardware is needed for 28 apartments
This summer we built Robonomics 5.0. Not a rebrand — a change in what the protocol is for: from a parachain with robotics pallets to infrastructure for cyber-physical systems. Part 1 of 3: the protocol
