Abstract
This work presents a retrospective analysis of indoor CO measurements obtained with a mobile robot in an educational building after the COVID-19 lockdown (May 2021), at a time when public activities resumed with mandatory local pandemic restrictions. The robot-based CO measurement system was assessed as an alternative to the deployment of a net of sensors in a building in the pandemic period, in which there was a global stock outage of CO sensors. The analysis of the obtained measurements confirms that a mobile system can be used to obtain interpretable information on the CO levels inside the rooms of a building during a pandemic outbreak.
