LG has unveiled an advanced air purifier mask that makes most face coverings look ancient by comparison.
The wearable is equipped with a respiratory sensor that detects the cycle and volume of the wearer’s breath, and it adjusts the dual three-speed fans accordingly, speeding up to assist air intake or slowing down when exhaling to make breathing easier.
LG says it’s ergonomically designed to minimize air leakage around the nose and chin, and it can be comfortably worn for “hours on end.” It offers eight hours of battery life on the low setting and two hours on high.
The wearable also offers a charging case that is equipped with a UV-LED light that “kills harmful germs.” LG also bills the mask as an “environmentally responsible solution,” as the company says that every part of the LG PuriCare Wearable is replaceable and recyclable.
There are no details on how much it will sell for or when it will be released.
