Product

A project for Sustainable Behavior Change in collaboration with HP, lögr (ancient Norse word for water) is a platform designed to promote water conservation by empowering individuals to actively monitor and reduce their water consumption. Through a hardware component integrated into water outlets like faucets and showers, Lögr provides real-time feedback on water usage via tangible cues. This system not only tracks individual consumption but also fosters a community of users dedicated to conservation. By setting goals, sharing tips, and celebrating milestones, Logr engages users in a collaborative effort toward sustainable water usage. Its app component encourages goal-setting and facilitates a supportive community focused on conservation practices, making water conservation a tangible and interactive experience for all users.

A compact hardware component seamlessly integrating with existing water outlets such as showers and faucets. Non-invasive, the sensors ensure user-friendly installation while eliminating direct water contact. Leveraging low and medium-frequency vibrations generated by water flow, our solution determines flow rate and outlet on/off conditions. Vibration data undergoes processing by machine learning algorithms through user-conducted calibration cycles. Data collection, monitoring, and analytics platform translating water outlet data into actionable insights for users (presented through a user-friendly app or web dashboard).
