An Audio Visualizer Made of Flames

Derek Muller du site scientifique Veritasium a rendu visite à une équipe de physiciens et chimistes qui ont construit une « Pyro Board » : un panneau audio qui contient 2 500 flammes variant selon le son auquel elles sont connectées. Une association insolite du design et de la science pure à découvrir.

Must-have Fire Mask

One of the more common injuries during a fire isn’t a skin burn, but lung damage from breathing in dangerous smoke. The Fire Escape Mask helps users to escape fire situations safely by catching smoke before it enters the lungs. A liquid reservoir is activated when the user opens the quick-access package, permeating the mask to absorb smoke. It not only protects the lungs, but also gives victims more time to escape to safety.

Designers: Jiang Jieyu, Fang Zishuo, Tong Shang, Hu Tengwen, and Chi Cheng

Movinkler, Say What?

Yes, Movinkler! A self-adjusting fire sprinkler system that is simpler, smarter, and safer than most existing models. The design features a heat-detection camera and capacity for movement. Addressing existing issues like not operating until they reach a certain temperature, not functioning properly on dead spots and not controlling the water usage, the Movinkler offers solutions that seem acceptable.

  • Movinkler is fitted with a heat-detecting camera.
  • When the camera detects heat due to a fire, Movinkler starts rotating and its headpiece aims at the fire by moving up and down.
  • It ejects water immediately to put out the fire.
  • Once the fire is extinguished, it stops operating.
  • The sprinkler system extinguishes fire in what would otherwise be dead spots; enables early fire suppression by operating promptly upon detection of a fire; and guarantees far less wastage of water as well as less severe secondary water damage.

Movinkler is a 2013 red dot award: design concept winner.

Designer: Jin seon Lee

Fire Away!

I’m a little embarrassed to admit I have no idea how to use a common fire extinguisher… but I know I’m not the only one! While I’m sure it’s somewhat basic, compared to the SafeHome extinguisher, it’s way more complicated. Just pull the pin to release the trigger, point in the direction of the fire, and let ‘er rip!

Easy and light enough for kids to use, this compact extinguisher was designed for mounting in areas of the home that are most vulnerable to fire. With one quick grab, it slips out of the holder with your hand already in position to use!
