Airdrop Irrigation system - Drought killer?


Drought is still a big issue for many areas in the world. However this might become a thing from the past thanks to the invention of Edward Linacre.



The young Australian designer created a device that collects water from thin air. His concept is a low-tech, easy to assemble and maintain product, which collects and stores water in an underground tank. The collected water is then ready to be pumped out via irrigation process right into the roots of the plants.



The Airdrop Irrigation design won Edward the first prize in this year’s James Dyson Award competition. As the winner, he will receive $14,000, which will help him finish and ready his product for the market. 


Here is an interview with the designer, explaining how his device works.
