Brief:
Working with Doconomy as a school assignment. The brief was to pick one of the UN's sustainable development goals (SDG) and come up with a fully scalable product.
Solution:
Let’s face it, Swedes are extremely spoiled when it comes to freshwater. The average Swede uses 140L of water per day, we even flush our toilets with drinkable water. Why you might think? It’s free, so we take it for granted. Lack of water might not be an urgent SDG in Sweden, but research show that sea levels in southern Sweden are rising, and warm summers coupled with dry winters in recent years have caused unusually low groundwater levels in many parts of the country.
That's why I invented Tappy. A universal nozzle that's placed on your tap and connected to your app. The app enables you to monitor your usage of water, getting weekly reports of groundwater levels, and allows you to set your own water limit. Tappy will also notify you about how much water you’re using, and when you almost have reached your limit the nozzle will make the water stream smaller, allowing you to use less water for a longer time.
