Polluted-indoor air causes-millions of deaths and diseases each year, according to the World Health Organization. One company is hoping to bring more-breathable air into your home via a smart, natural air purifier. Called the Clairy, it’s-disguised-as a ceramic flower pot that uses real plants to help filter the air. The flower pot has a built-in fan that guides-the air inside your room-to the roots of the plants, where there are colonies of microorganisms in the soil. The system-works as a-biofilter, removing chemicals like ammonia, benzene, and xylene, which produces fresher air, according to its creators. Related :-This enormous air purifier sucks smog from the air, turns it into cubes Via-the Clairy Android or iOS-app, you’ll get updates about the room’s-toxin, humidity, and temperature levels, thanks to sensors inside the pot. You’ll also find-tips on how to improve your room’s air quality in the app. Clairy can also be adjusted to fit your needs if-you have allergies or asthma or you’re pregnant. NASA created-a-list of the best plants for-filtering out toxic elements from the air, including-aloe vera, English ivy, and snake plants. The plants aren’t included when you back the-Kickstarter project, so you’ll have to provide your own and get your own soil. For a pledge of about-$150, you can claim an early bird Clairy. For an extra $50, you can get-a wooden tripod. The company has already surpassed their goal of $100,291 and plans to start shipping the pots in December 2016. That’s a pretty ambitious timeline, considering each ceramic pot will be hand-crafted. As usual with Kickstarter projects, back-at your own risk.
