Inventor Wants To Charge Phones While You Breath

By

Inventor Joo Paulo Lammoglia, from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, has developed a mask that you wear that will charge mobile devices while you breath. The invention, called the AIRE mask, harnesses the wind power created by breathing and converts it into electricity to run anything from your Apple iPod to pretty much any other portable device. The electronic mask contains tiny wind turbines and the energy created is transferred through a cable to your electronic device to charge it. The idea is interesting, but I doubt many people will want to wear a mask like that for an extended period of time. It might sell well to the doomsday preppers though!

AIRE mask

It can be used indoors or outdoors, while you’re sleeping, walking, running or even reading a book. Besides saving energy and helping environmental preservation, it also encourages physical exercise. Its energy is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Though many of our modern gadgets offer benefits, they tend to use a high amount of electrical energy. Harnessing energy from human activities and transforming it into electricity is possible and is a great solution.
