What is the News?
A Delhi Based Startup has developed a helmet called “Puros”. This helmet can help two-wheeler riders breathe clean air.
What is Puros?
Puros is an anti-pollution helmet that can help 2-wheeler riders breathe clean air.
Developed by: Shellios Technolabs with the help of the Department of Science and Technology (DST).
Features: The helmet has a system set at the back that picks up all particulate matter coming from outside and cleans the air before it reaches the biker.
– It also has a Bluetooth-enabled app that lets the rider know when it requires cleaning.
Significance: This helmet will help the two-wheeler riders who were having prolonged daily exposures and that too, to a double whammy of particulate matter and vehicular emissions in the air that they breathe.
