Urban development creates several inadvertent impacts related to urban climate and human biometeorology. Monitoring systems based on microcontrollers are slowly emerging as an alternative to conventional devices for monitoring outdoor thermal comfort (OTC), thus overcoming limitations imposed by the high costs of commercially available equipment. This review was conducted using the Scopus database, searching for articles and conference papers according to a pre-defined search string, which included the terms "microcontrollers" and "human thermal comfort" up to 2022. From a total sample of 113 articles, 52 papers met the desired criteria (written in English, published in peer-reviewed journals, and within the given time frame). Results show a growing, yet timid trend of published material on low-cost, open-source technologies for diverse applications in human biometeorology.
城市发展会带来一些与城市气候和人类生物气象学相关的意外影响。基于微控制器的监测系统正逐渐成为传统户外热舒适（OTC）监测设备的替代品，从而克服了商业上可用设备成本高带来的限制。本综述使用 Scopus 数据库进行，根据预定义的搜索字符串搜索文章和会议论文，其中包括“微控制器”和“人体热舒适”这两个术语，时间范围截止到 2022 年。从总共 113 篇文章中，有 52 篇论文符合要求（用英文书写，发表在同行评审的期刊上，并且在给定的时间范围内）。结果表明，低成本、开源技术在人类生物气象学的各种应用方面的相关出版物呈增长趋势，但仍较为谨慎。
