From the Coroflot portfolio of : Alistair Bramley ( New York, NY )
Featured Project : Interzone
Finally, something the iphone doesn't do, yet... "Interzone aims to build on the work of Sensor Planet: a Nokia Research Center initiated program on large-scale sensor networks that is interested in combining the physical and the virtual worlds through new ways of sensing." This project is a sensor that would work in conjunction with a mobile phone to provide information to the user about local air quality. Now get out of town!

I don't recall previously reading about Nokia's SensorPlanet effort, but it sure sounds familiar
It got me to remember this Core competition entry from 2004 ( http://www.coroflot.com/public/individual_set.asp?from_url=true&individual_id=61340&set_id=59277&sort_by=1& )
check it out!
Intel Research has been working on participatory sensor networks (aka crowd sourcing data) on a real world project this past year and have prototypes up and running.

The next phase is to hand them out to individuals so they become citizen scientists. Nothing as cool as Alistair's design has been released but soon!
