Pollen Allergies

Pollen allergies are increasingly affecting the daily lives of many people. This paper gives an overview of how digital technologies can simplify the handling of pollen allergies. Therefore, two qualitative surveys were conducted with a total of 100 people. The questioned people are divided in two groups: people suffering from allergies and people in their close environment. In addition, other digital technologies were compared. It became clear that there are different apps and websites to retrieve pollen values, but there is hardly an awareness of how to use this information correctly. Furthermore, there are already existing technologies, such as air purifiers, which are only suitable for closed buildings. This paper is interesting for allergy sufferers as well as people in their close environment and people working in the health sector.
