Water Use-Curbing Devices

The 'eDrop' Tracks Daily Water Usage to Help Users Decrease Consumption

— January 7, 2017 — Art & Design
Knowing what your daily water usage level is is the first step towards decreasing consumption, so the 'eDrop' is a new device that's designed to help users in the process. The 'eDrop' works by being installed on the end of a faucet in order to instantly start tracking how much water you are using each day. From here, user's can connect to the device via their smartphone and aim to improve their consumption levels by setting goals to beat.

The 'eDrop' is the design work of VORM and is a great device for helping to effectively curb daily water usage without having to rely on guesswork. The 'eDrop' features a slim, discreet design that won't detract too much from the design aesthetic of the faucet it's placed on.

2. Smart Water Management - The eDrop device signifies the growing trend towards creating smart water management systems for households and businesses to track, monitor and optimize water usage.
3. Internet of Things (iot) Water Devices - Smart water devices like the eDrop signify a growing trend of IoT-enabled devices that help in efficient and optimized water usage, leading to opportunities for designing more smart water devices.
Industry Implications
1. Home Improvement - The eDrop presents an opportunity for the home improvement industry to deliver water control systems that can actively monitor and reduce household water consumption, thereby reducing water bills and environmental impact.
2. Smart Home Technology - The eDrop fits into the construction of smart houses and creates disruptive opportunities for integrating smart water management, tracking and analyzing water usage patterns, and developing systems to optimize water usage.
3. Sustainability and Environmental Conservation - Technologies such as eDrop demonstrate the growing trend of being environmentally responsible by making water usage more sustainable, thereby creating opportunities to improve sustainability and environmental conservation initiatives.
