This paper presents a new way of dealing with drinkable water shortness all over the world. The developed devices’ functionality is based on the well-known and established SODIS (SOlar DISinfection) method. The whole device, Scipio—Scientific Purification Indicator, is designed in a way, that it is self-powered by solar cells and can be placed inside a bottle in order to provide best measurements. The device is capable of communicate via Bluetooth with other devices. Thus, an observation or control of the correct application of the SODIS method can be established. The paradigm shift we offer in terms of development aid not to simply help the people but to empower them to care for themselves. It is a very important that everyone can purify their own drinking water without the need of subsequent supplies.
