Face masks in the near future might look a lot different.
The Korean electronic and appliance maker LG has announced plans to unveil its latest product: an air purifying face mask.
LG will showcase the PuriCare Wearable Air Purifier at this year’s annual International Franchise Association convention. The event is closed to the public this year due to the coronavirus pandemic.
The PuriCare Wearable uses two H13 HEPA filters to filter the air breathed in by the wearer, according to LG.
To assist with breathing, the wearable features dual fans and a respiratory sensor that detects the cycle and volume of the wearer’s breath, and adjusts the dual three-speed fans accordingly, the company says.
“The PuriCare Wearable Air Purifier is an exciting addition to our growing lineup of products designed to deliver meaningful health and hygiene benefits,” said Dan Song, president of LG Electronics Home Appliance & Air Solution Company. “At a time when consumers are seeking ways to make life safer and more convenient, it’s important that we’re able to offer solutions that add measurable value.”
According to LG, the wearable has a design that allows it to fit snugly on the user’s face for hours at a time, while minimizing air leakage around the nose and chin. The wearable has two settings including a low mode, which offers eight hours of use, and a high mode, which last two hours per use.
The wearable will come with a charging case that features a UV-LED light that kills harmful germs, the company said.
Details on a release for the PuriCare Wearable Air Purifier and its cost were not included in the news release.
