LG introduces electronic mask with air purifier

The coronavirus pandemic has pushed us towards actively wearing face masks, and this smart face mask is touted to help address the short supply of disposable masks, and provide fresh, clean air both indoors and out.

LG Electronics has officially announced a portable air purifier that one can wear on their face like a mask. The PuriCare Wearable Air Purifier employs two H13 HEPA filters, similar to the filters used in home air purifier products, Report says. 

The LG PuriCare Wearable Air Purifier features Dual Fans as well as includes a Respiratory Sensor. It also comes in an ergonomic design to fit comfortably on a range of facial shapes and sizes.

The LG PuriCare Wearable Air Purifier will be showcased at IFA 2020 in September, while its availability in select markets is set for the fourth quarter.
