Water Watcher

Water Watcher Innovation

Did you know that leaving the water tap running whilst brushing your teeth wastes approximately 12 liters of water?

The team of Water Watcher developed a small and inexpensive innovation. The main aim of this innovation is to remind people to turn the tap off and is particularly helpful for forgetful people; for example, children and people that suffer from memory problems.

Features and Functionalities of the Water Watcher

Water Watcher is a user-friendly item that consists of a strap that goes onto the faucet of any tap.  It also contains a vibration sensor and is encased in silicone to make it adjustable and waterproof.

It connects via Bluetooth to an alarm which can be hidden from sight. A prototype of this innovation was made using the BBC micro: bit and a small speaker for the alarm. We envisage the final product being small, compact, and easy to use: with two settings for baths or sinks.
