Revolutionizing Breath Training with P Y Lung

YuZhen Lin, YiTing Chang and YuHsiang Hou's Innovative Approach to Enhancing Lung Capacity

Introducing P Y Lung, a breath training game designed by YuZhen Lin, YiTing Chang and YuHsiang Hou. This innovative design, inspired by the benefits of breath training for everyone, not just athletes and wind instrumentalists, integrates health and fun into daily life. Its unique properties and playful design make it a standout in the realm of health and wellness products.

Recognizing that everyone can benefit from regular breath training, the design team sought to create a device that was accessible and enjoyable for all. The result was P Y Lung, a toy-like design that brings creativity and joy to the healthy life of human beings. The game involves blowing a ball through different checkpoints on a track by controlling the inhale and exhale of air, thereby exercising the lungs and improving breathing tactics.

The track, with its various modules, is flexible and changeable, offering different degrees of difficulty. Users can adjust the magnet in the breath builder according to their respiratory condition. This customization makes P Y Lung adaptable to a wide range of users, from those seeking to improve their lung capacity to those simply looking for a fun and engaging game.

P Y Lung is made from Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene plastic and is produced using 3D printing technology. The design team faced several challenges in creating the product, including providing a simplified assembly process for the ball track and minimizing the size of the breath builder. However, they overcame these obstacles through innovative design and the use of magnet repelled effect.

The project began in July 2018 and was completed in Tainan, Taiwan in March 2019. It was first exhibited in the biggest department store of Tainan in March 2019, and later at the Young Designers' Exhibition held in the world trade center of Taipei in May 2019. The design has since been awarded Silver in A' Toys, Games and Hobby Products Design Award in 2019, a testament to its creativity and professional excellence.

In conclusion, P Y Lung is a revolutionary breath training game that combines health and fun in an accessible and engaging design. Its unique features and innovative approach to enhancing lung capacity make it a standout in the field of health and wellness products. The design team's commitment to creating a product that benefits everyone, not just athletes and wind instrumentalists, is truly commendable. With its patent pending, P Y Lung is set to breathe new life into the world of breath training.
