ible Airvida E1 Wearable Air Purifier x Noise-Cancelling Earphones Unveiled

The ible Airvida E1 was unveiled at Viva Tech 2022 in Paris, bringing ible's certified wearable ionic air purifiers to an even larger audience. The Airvida E1, the world's first wearable ionic air purifier with built-in earphones and exclusive app dashboard, uses ible's unique Breathing Pathway Eco Ion Technology to purify air, and lessen the potential impact of coronavirus, PM2.5, pollen, allergen, and bacteria.

Due to the pandemic's impact, people begin have begun to show great concern for air-related topics. Airvida E1 can generate up to 6 million negative ions/cm³ around the user's facial area every 0.6 seconds. Through ible's unique Breathing Pathway Eco Ion Technology, Airvida E1 produces negative ions which can disrupt and break down coronavirus' carbon-hydrogen bond and inactivate them immediately. In addition, those negative ions can also attach to the coming particles and turn them into bigger and heavier chunks to fall into the ground. This mechanism can reduce inhalable airborne coronavirus, PM2.5, pollen, allergen, and bacteria.
Airvida E1 weighs only 42 grams and is comfortable to wear for hours. The battery life can last more than 8 hours when turning on air, purifying, and earphone functions. Without music playing, battery life increases to more than 30 hours.

Airvida E1's APP can provide instant PM2.5 & pollen information according to the user's location. It can also remind users to turn on the air purifying function or adjust the level of the negative ions (2 million/ 4 million/ 6 million negative ions) when needed. Airvida E1 is suitable for commuters, and it can also be put on its stand to allow use as a desktop air purifier even in the office.

Award-winning breakthrough design
This brand new concept was identified with Japan Good Design's judges, making Airvida E1 the only wearable air purifier which won the 2021 Good Design Award (Japan). The judges of this award have very positive comments for Airvida E1 and wish Airvida E1 to become the pioneer to the epidemic prevention market.

In addition to its safety, Airvida's high purifying ability also made itself earn Innovation Awards at CES 2020, German Innovation Awards 2022, and the first prize in the Epidemic Prevention Category at 2019, 2020, 2021 SNQ (Symbol of National Quality, Taiwan), and 2022 Taiwan Excellence Awards. Due to its outstanding virus removal capability, Airvida was recommended by TTA to StartupBlink (UNAIDS, under the United Nations) and soon be recognized on their Coronavirus Innovation Map.

Designed in Taiwan for the world
Airvida is designed and manufactured in Taiwan to fulfill the highest standards of material (RoHS), performance, efficiency optimization (SGS, Kisato Research Center for Environmental Science (Japan) & FIA (Japan) reports), and safety regulation (CE & FCC).

Airvida has sold over 300,000 units in over ten countries to date. Referring to the customer reviews in Japan Rakuten, Airvida not only gets a 4.5 out of 5 rating but also makes 97% of hay fever sufferers feel improved.

An air purifier this size will be borderline useless.

Is it april fools day? :confused: No, so it must be another snake oil product.

"This mechanism can reduce inhalable airborne coronavirus, PM2.5, pollen, allergen, and bacteria."
-> By how much, 0.01%?
"... to purify air, and lessen the potential impact of coronavirus, PM2.5, pollen, allergen, and bacteria."
-> You can not lessen the impact of a conrona infection. If you just breath in a few corona virus particles you're infected. Doesn't matter if "reduced" or not. Not even masks can protect you.
"Referring to the customer reviews in Japan Rakuten, Airvida not only gets a 4.5 out of 5 rating..."
-> Reviews that are mostly paid/faked, especially on those wesites. Heck, even Amazon is plagued with it.

Such deceiving advertisements shouldn't be allowed legally.
TL;DR: this thing will NOT protect you from coronavirus, PM2.5, pollen, allergen, and bacteria.

Not the first time some snake oil product made such claims. I see no confirmation of proof, only some janky video that reminds me of those old "4 outta 5 doctors recommend...." commercials.

I think this video says plenty:


It's video evidence that over the course of 1 minute, this wearable air purifier kind of doesn't fully succeed in clearing some smoke from a SEALED box that's under one litre in volume. At rest, adults breathe about one litre of air every ten seconds, so even if this wearable purifier was plumbed into your nose directly, it would still be completely useless unless it was at least six times more powerful. Given how anemic it is, and that it's not plumbed directly into your nose, you can make a safe assumption that contaminants in the air will disperse evenly though brownian motion in the volume of air between your nose/mouth and this purifier,meaning that this is only of value if used in an exceptionally small, airtight room.

How small a room, you may ask? Well one so small that you'd suffocate in it rather quickly, but that's not a problem because you'd need to amptuate all your limbs in order to fit into the room in the first place.

I glad you mentioned the box thing, I read that on their website and had to roll my eyes. I seem to recall another tv commercial with something similar. :laugh:

Passing this along as a press release is pretty low, even for the modern TPU.

Even if they're using legitimately proven air purification technology, there's not enough surface area to do much.

As someone with lifelong allergies, someone that has used and built air cleaners, I feel all these 'sensational' integrations of 'sanitation' are doing nothing but harm.

And you didn't even include another element, air movement from opening a door/window or if someone walks by. Or wind when used outside.

It's just baffling for what nonsense they hand out "Innovation Awards". :laugh:

You guys don't understand, you plug it in your ears to let pure unadulterated sound pass through your canals, upgrading your audiophile music session. Anyway, I gotta go invent the complementary butt plug air filter to avoid that pesky methane of my farts when I listen to music, it ruins my audiophilexperience.

And don't forget the RGB LED's. :cool:

This is just an ioniser, isnt it?

they basically use static electricity to hope crap in the air sticks together and gets heavy enough to fall down and stay away from you


They're slow and would do sweet F all like this


Ah yes, google agrees



Oh and they create ozone, which is hazardous.

Awww yes, gimme dat wearable lung damage

Oh for sure. Let me get this straight - if your own, at rest, breathing can overwhelm this by a factor of six, the slightest hint of an air movement would effectively 'reset' the test box from that video with new air far too quickly to be of use. Given that it takes a minute or so to have any real effect on about 1 litre of air, we can look at how many litres of air a tiny little 40mm fan like this moves:



5.8cfm = 2.7lps, so this would reset the smoke box in the video almost three times a second, meaning that if your breeze is more powerful than a low-noise 40mm fan, the wearable air purifier is around 180 times too weak to even overcome the breeze. Lets's face it, you can feel even a gentle breeze on your face, I challenge anyone to feel the 'breeze' of a low-noise 40mm fan from any significant distance, say the half-meter distance shown in this image, for example....



When I said brownian motion, what I meant is that even in completely still air, the natural movement of the air molecules is enough to rapidly diffuse pollutants back into the tiny pocket of deionised air it creates. The only way it stands a chance is to be put into a sealed box of such low volume that over time (the 1 minute of that video) it's puny cumulative effect stacks up enough to become significant.
