Swedish Machine Turns Sweat Into Drinking Water

Posted by timothy on from the frank-herbert-smiles-from-the-beyond dept.

New submitter Taffykay writes "Swedish designers developed the Sweat Machine to drain perfectly good drinking water from sweaty clothes! PR Agency Deportivo has teamed up with UNICEF to show off the machine at the Gotha Cup youth soccer tournament in order to highlight how many people around the world lack access to basic drinking water."

    I was thinking how sorry I feel for the guy that tested the prototypes.

    It's going to be a Kickstarter. And if you pledge $200, you will get a free pair of blue contact lenses, along with your still suit. A pledge of $1,000 will get you a crysknife with holster.
