The conceptual 'Airpen' spirometer is a device for those who are recovering from a breathing issue or simply seeking out a way to keep an eye on their lung health. The device maintains an ultra-compact construction that works by having users simply breathe in and out, and will provide them with a reading of their metrics on a connected smartphone. The portable construction of the device means it can be brought virtually anywhere to allow for impromptu readings that suit the lifestyle of the user.
The conceptual 'Airpen' spirometer is the design work of Mitul Lad, Pietro Russomanno and Stefania Pizzichi, and is the winner of the Red Dot Design Concept Award for the year 2021.
