For those individuals who wish to be productive all the time, even when they are sleeping, the AIRE concept mask is the perfect match. Any smartphone user who needs to charge their device but can't find a socket can merely slip on this mask, connect it to their phone, and keep breathing to juice up their mobile.
For a world that is becoming highly dependent upon external gadgets to make life easier, companies have to find a way to balance satisfying the growing desire for gadgets with reducing harm on the environment. One such result is the AIRE concept mask. It takes the wearers breath and converts it into electricity via tiny wind turbines and then charges the smartphone that it is connected to.
