A new scientific paper has been published explaining now certain types of simulations can be used to identify local exposure to harmful pollutants from vehicles.
The Royal Society points out how major health risks and chronic diseases are caused by exposure to unregulated particle pollutants from road, tyre and brake sources so explains a physics-informed immersive reality experience to communicate outcomes with the general public for health guidance.
The scientists show that by using immersive reality models to visualise pollution data in a human-centric format, people could identify pollutant sources and health risks, and understand how to navigate urban spaces for reduced exposure.
