Après une catastrophe, comment savoir si l'eau est potable ? Les tests actuels sont lents et compliqués, et le délai peut être mortel, comme dans le cas de l'éruption de choléra après le tremblement de terre d'Haïti en 2010. Sonaar Luthra, un lauréat de TED Fellow, nous découvre le modèle d'un instrument simple servant à déterminer rapidement si l'eau est potable ou non : le Canari d'Eau.

Sonaar Luthra is the creator of Water Canary, a water-testing device that collects real-time water-quality data from the field. Full bio »
