Scientists at the University of Birmingham have developed a physics-based model to help cyclists and pedestrians avoid pollution in cities.
The tool visualizes certain types of pollution in real-time, allowing users to take steps to avoid it.
The data behind the tool can also guide policymakers and urban planners in making cities cleaner and healthier.
The researchers used large-eddy simulations to predict pollutant transport from vehicle emissions and developed an immersive reality tool to make pollutants visible.
