LG reveals battery-powered face mask with built-in air purifier

LG has revealed a battery-powered face mask with a built-in air purifier, which seeks to resolve issues of “inconsistent quality” and make “breathing effortless”.

The PuriCare Wearable Air Purifier has two H13 HEPA filters, the same kind that are used in the brand’s home purifying products. HEPA filters are also used in aircraft to clean the air inside cabins.

The mask’s two fans are accompanied by a “Respiratory Sensor” which detects the “cycle and volume of the wearer’s breath”. The sensor then accordingly adjusts the fans, which have three speeds.

With a “lightweight” 820mAh battery, the mask is able to operate for eight hours at low mode and two hours on high mode, according to the company. The fans can automatically speed up to “assist air intake” and slow down to “reduce resistance” as people exhale.

“Extensive facial shape analysis”

LG says that the product has been ergonomically designed based on “extensive facial shape analysis” in an effort to reduce “air leakage” around the nose and chin region. The company says this will allow the product to be worn comfortably for hours on end.

The product comes with a case that seeks to maintain cleanliness between use. The case can charge the mask and has UV-LED lights that help to kill germs. It also links up with mobile apps to tell users when the filters need to be replaced. Each part of the mask if replaceable and recyclable.

COVID-19 concerns

LG Electronics Home Appliance & Air Solution Company presdent Dan Song says: “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.”

Though LG makes no references to coronavirus, the facemask has likely been prompted by the ongoing pandemic, as demand for facemasks soar. (There has also been a boom in home purifying product design.) But while the purifying mechanism works to filter the air people inhale, it is unclear as to whether it filters the air people exhale.

This is a key element for facemask design; part of their use is filtering the air someone with coronavirus might exhale around people who are not infected. Design Week reached out to LG about this aspect of the design but the company said it cannot release more details until the product has been certified.

The face mask will be revealed at consumer electronics tradeshow, IFA 2020 based in Berlin. While LG says that it will be made available in certain territories in the fourth quarter, there is currently no price.

The 18 Best Things to See and Do in Oslo

Image
Posted : 6/26/2020 | June 26th, 2020 Balancing natural beauty, historic architecture, and a modern flair, Oslo , Norway’s beautiful capital, is a city that punches well above its weight. It’s small but bursting with things to do: there are countless museums, spacious parks, and delicious restaurants to keep you busy. It’s close to numerous forests with hiking and biking trails, and there are lots of places to swim in the summer too. However, since it’s expensive, a lot of travelers pass Oslo by. While a visit will certainly eat into your budget, Oslo is definitely worth a couple of days. To help show precisely why you should add it to your itinerary, here are my favorite things to see and do in Oslo:   1. Take a Free Walking Tour I always start my trips off with a free walking tour. They’re a budget-friendly way to see the main sights, learn a little history, meet other travelers, and get access to an expert local guide who can answer all my questions. Free Tour Oslo organ...

Practical Action rebrands to show “how small actions can change the big picture”

Image
NB Studio has created a new identity for Practical Action, a UK development organisation. Practical Action was established in 1966 with the aim of creating appropriate technologies for developing regions of the world. It works primarily in Eastern and Southern Africa, South Asia and Latin America. It was founded by economist and philosopher Fritz Schumacher whose book, Small is Beautiful, champions the concept that small changes can empower people more than big ones. Practical Action’s aim is to provide sustainable technologies – systems that countries can accommodate with their existing resources – instead of providing large-scale aid that cannot be easily sustained. The charity was originally called Intermediate Technology Development Group but was changed to Practical Action in 2005. “Ingenuity People” Nick Finney, founder and creative director at NB Studio, says that the brand update aims to clarify the charity’s function. One of the problems with its previous names, Finne...

The legacy of Life magazine’s images celebrated in new show

Image
When Life magazine was re-launched by magazine magnate Henry Luce in 1936, the idea was to put photojournalism at the forefront and publish only photography-led stories. Readers soon became accustomed to seeing images from around the world that gave them the kind of first-hand insight they’d never previously had. At one point it was selling 13.8 million copies a week, and in its lifetime the magazine commissioned more than 120,000 stories and 10 million photographs. Life was published up until 2000, and to celebrate the contributions the magazine made to documentary photography and photojournalism, Atlas Gallery in London is exhibiting a selection of some of the magazine’s most iconic and influential photographs.
