About Brisk Air Purifier
Brisk is a mobile air purifier designed for use in homes. Unlike purifiers that stay in a corner, Brisk moves through rooms on an intelligent platform. Multiple sensors support smooth motion, human detection, obstacle avoidance and route planning. In larger spaces, the area near people is cleaned first. Fan speed is adjusted automatically, and a quiet mode is selected when the room becomes dark. The interface shows the moving pattern, fan speed and air quality, and a light panel indicates when the filter should be changed. The filters are fully recyclable.
Press Kit
- Unique Properties
- The cleaning machine with artificial intelligence, having the ability to walk, judge, and adjust fan speed intelligently in the spaces at home. The intelligent mobile platform is the most significant difference between Brisk and other similar products. Besides, in a larger environment, Brisk will clean the area near humans first.

- Production Technology
- There are multiple sensors for the purpose of smoother motion, human detecting, obstacle avoiding, and cleaning route planning. It can also switch mode by detecting the brightness in the room to be quiet and dark enough for you to sleep near it. Also, a light instruction panel on the back can remind users of the time to change filters.
- Design Challenge
- Keep the product simple but not simpler. Most business strategy for making a product is to have the more values and functionalities the better. However, the increased requirements made the design more complex and sometimes weaken the product performance. This often elevates the difficulty of operating the product and causes confusion to the customers.
- Project Duration
- This project started in December 2019 and will be finished in October 2020 in Taiwan.
- Operation Flow
- The interface with intuitive function buttons and the LED auxiliary light allows the user to operate and grasp the status of the machine, including moving patterns, fan speed, and air quality. A light instruction panel on the back can remind users of the time to change filters.
- Research
- The design team worked hard to make a user-oriented product by investigating deeply into the user habits and existing behavior patterns. Using image thinking method, mind map, and empathy map, the team formulate more accurate needs and conditions. Then, combined scenario and observation to plan a more overall analysis of the product. In the designing process, the team avoids falling into subjective thinking, closely follows the user-centric design thinking to create humanized house appliances. Last but not least, the design also took considerations of protecting our environment to have fully recyclable filters.
- Inspiration
- Through a careful market survey, the air purifiers can only be placed in the corner of the house and require a long time to clean the overall space. This is both energy-wasting and time-consuming, especially in an environment that is relatively large or having many compartments. To improve this situation, the designer focused on the goal of improving user experience and air cleaning ability. Following the goal, the team has created a mobile cleaning machine -Brisk.
