About iFog Þokuvarnarbúnaður

iFog er þjófavarnarbúnaður sem myndar þykkan þokuvegg þegar hann skynjar innbrot, dregur úr skyggni í núll og stöðvar þannig allan þjófnað. Hönnunaráherslan var að láta þetta tæki blandast í hvaða umhverfi sem er, með rúmfræðilegri lögun og einföldum og lágmarkslínum, en hafa samt sterkan karakter með mismunandi dýptarstigum og áferð að framan.

Production Technology
all the exterior aesthetic components are realized in injection moulded ABS plastic.
The inside "frame" and boiler case are realized in injection moulded PA 6 GF30 plastic.
Design Challenge
the hardest part was to realize a minimal aesthetic without it being too simple and boring. Another challenging aspect was to maintain the intial idea from the first sketches without compromising functionality and without driving up the costs of production.
Research
The design objective was to make the device modern and with a clean aesthetic. Its purpouse as an anti theft device is not to be the centerpiece of any enviroment but to blend in and complement it.
We looked at other devices whose application requires this kind of funcitonality, as well as modern interior design environments.
The result is a clean design, with a geometric shape, monochromatic and with functional elements blended with the design.
Inspiration
The design follows the rule "form follows function" as it is developed for the product to have a minimal and clean aestethics this allows it to be installed in various environments. Ease of use has also been a key component for this design with easy access for the user to replace the fog bag but at the same time to be secure to any tampering with its critical components.
Project Duration
The project started in March 2021 in Padova and finished in November 2021 in Padova
Operation Flow
iFog can be installed in any closed environment, and is connected to a security system and works as an alarm would work. When an intrusion is detected it triggers creating a thick fog that makes impossible for the intruder to see anything and prevents any theft.
