About Tickless Run Ultrasonisk Flåttavskrekker
Tickless Run er en ultrasonisk flåttavskrekker designet for løpere og aktive fotturister. Enheten sender ut en serie ultrasoniske pulser som forstyrrer flått og holder dem på avstand, uten bruk av kjemikalier. Tickless Run måler 22 mm i bredde og 38 mm i høyde, slik at vekten holdes lav og enheten nesten ikke merkes under løping. Et silikonbånd settes inn i sidefestene og festes til skolissene for et godt grep. Et oppladbart batteri gir langvarig beskyttelse, og et nattlys bidrar til synlighet i mørket.

- Design Challenge
- The hardest part in creating the design was to fit all the components into the shell and remain tiny sized. Its shape was determined by the rechargeable battery and its height by the other parts as transducer, microchip, led light, micro-Usb connector, Pcb (Printed Circuit Board), and the button. The design of the cover was determined by the transducer, the led light, and the button. Our aim was to create a small product that is super light, easy to attach and stays fixed while running.
- Research
- We conducted market research that demonstrated the need for such a chemical-free and rechargeable product against ticks which is more sustainable. Nowadays, we spend more and more time in nature, so the control of ticks is also extremely important. Our goal with this design was to create a stylish accessory that is fashionable to wear on the one hand, and its shape perfectly meets the needs of runners and active hikers on the other.
- Inspiration
- Since 2010, our brand has been looking for breakthrough solutions to open a new chapter in the fight against parasites. We are working for a safe environment for both humans and animals by preventing diseases transmitted by ticks. We believe that with our innovations we can generate changes in the incidence of parasitic problems. Our goal is to offer the most reliable and effective non-toxic tick repellent device which is also environmentally friendly.
- Project Duration
- The Tickless Run project started in April 2020, Budapest, Hungary and finished in December 2020 at the same place. The very first prototype was born in 2018, but we have been constantly improving that design ever since until it reached its current shape and colour.
- Operation Flow
- The Tickless Run’s technology is based on ultrasonic waves. The device emits series of ultrasonic pulses which disturb ticks, thus keeping them away.
