Kabiyon

The Kabiyon project aims toward enabling group work again at the University of Kassel by reducing the infection risk through filtering the air.

Due to the current pandemic situation, all of the working spaces in the university are closed and students can not work at the university  Although there are some regulations trying to allow a single person to work through the reservations, the group can still meet in the closed space. Therefore, this project focuses on enabling group working by reducing infection possibilities. The project consists of a venting machine integrated with a Hepa filter and conventional PC fans, as well as a canopy. The canopy is also made out of simple wood construction techniques and functions as a visual room divider. The canopy size is correlated to the fans and HEPA filter and can be extended to 4-6 students.

The University of Kassel is given the opportunity to take a pioneering position with regard to safe working and learning spaces and to take an important step for students in the digital.
