Canairi is a CO2 monitor that measures indoor air quality and encourages the user to ventilate their home, through nudging and storytelling.

The idea for Canairi stems from the old practice of using canaries in coal mines to warn miners of poor air. When the air quality becomes poor, Canairi will drop down, warning you about poor indoor air quality. The moment you open your windows and reestablishes a good air quality, Canairi raises back up. Simple as that.

The democratic design language makes it simple for children to understand, but also invites the minimalist adult to play along.

On the outside, Canairi is a minimalistic interpretation of a canary bird. The wings of the birds is attached to the body with loose joints making them swing when falling down. Canairi is equipped with a CO2-sensor connected to an algorithm correlating to levels recommended by Health Authorities worldwide. It’s made of recycled plastics and comes with a rechargeable battery and a wall-mount.

Canairi is powered by a 5000 mAh battery, with a mini-usb-port for charging or power supply-connection.

We like to think of Canairi as an intuitive solution to a complex problem. The main challenge as been to strip the product down to the very essentials and not get carried away by multi-functionality and IoT-integration.
ᱜᱚᱵᱮᱥᱚᱱᱟ
During the research phase we studied nudging mechanisms and talked to behavioural design experts (e.g. Sille Krukow.).

We also made a series of surveys (500+ participants) exploring the general knowledge about indoor air quality and the willingness to improve it.

5 Students from the Danish Technical Institute (DTU) helped us using different management tools to map out tasks and challenges to avoid unforeseen circumstances during the design proces.

2 students from the Danish School of Media and Journalism wrote a Bachelor thesis about Canairi and the power of behavioural design.

We spend 90% of our time indoors in developed countries and 80 million european families live in homes with a poor indoor climate, which can increase the risk of asthma, fatigue, headache and sleep disorders. This is a huge but invisible problem, calling for a visible solution. — So we looked for one and came to think of 'the canary in the coal mine'.

The first prototype was 3D-printed in Copenhagen in 2020 and has now reached a final stage with a production-ready prototype ready for market launch in 2022 Q2.

Canairi operates really simple: When the bird is standing up, it means that the indoor air quality is good. When the bird falls down, it means that the indoor air quality is poor and you need to ventilate your home in order to ''bring it back to life.''

Unlike other air quality monitors, Canairi will let you know when to ventilate your home without the use of light, sound or phone notifications. Canairi stands out by using Storytelling and Gamification as nudging mechanisms to encourage the user to take action an intuitive way.

By combining a minimalistic design language with playful form-giving and bright color, Canairi strives to become a natural part of a contemporary home and not just a piece of technical-looking consumer electronics you want to hide.
