| Sumario: | The monitoring of air temperature, among other microclimate variables, is essential for understanding the temperature distribution on a scale compatible with that of urban space. In the city, pedestrians experience different microclimate conditions over short distances, subject to variations in both environmental comfort and discomfort, particularly the thermal discomfort. The warm up of the urban environment reveals itself, then, as an opportunity for multidisciplinary studies that, in this work, is explored aiming to contextualize the teaching of architecture, urbanism and physics with the theme of the urban climate. Through research, ongoing since 2019, a prototype micrometeorological backpack for field measurements based on the Arduino platform was developed at Sustainable Laboratory of Urbanism and Architecture - LaSUS. A prototype was designed, tested and, when completed, it was called Bioclimatic Backpack. The results reinforce the value of integrating the different areas of knowledge for the design, construction, testing and validation of the prototype aiming at a low-cost replicable alternative for the study of the thermal environment in the city. |
