Roy Kim, a 13-year-old Oregon student, designed a chamber that converts air moisture into water for drought-affected farms.
The device uses a Peltier module to create a temperature difference, condensing water vapor from air into liquid.
It includes a heating element, filter module, fan, funnel, and valve to direct collected water to plants.
Soil moisture sensors and temperature/humidity sensors automatically adjust airflow to ensure efficient water production.
After testing, the device produced 1 liter of water per day.
