The Airban is a smart helmet that purifies the air as the user intakes air on their bike. With our increased global population and subsequently an increase in air pollution, this innovation comes when air quality is a true concern for many. This is especially so for city dwellers who rely on alternative transportation methods such as e-scooters and bikes.
Ergonomic in design, the smart helmer focuses on health and comfort. To ensure fresh airflow, the Airban sucks in polluted air as the ride moves through front vents. It is then purified and expelled onto the fixed face shield situated at a slight distance from the face. With this helmer, the user can breathe fresh air with ease.
