😷 "Invisible Mask" Protects Workers from Airborne Germs

Scientists at the University of Michigan have developed an "invisible mask" → that zaps 99.8% of airborne germs. The innovative device, created by Prof. Herek Clack's team and commercialized by Taza Aya, generates an air curtain that blocks and sterilizes incoming microbes.

The Worker Wearable Protection Device is designed for industrial and agricultural workers, providing a comfortable alternative to traditional masks. It features a backpack housing a nonthermal plasma module and air handler, treating air before it forms a protective barrier.

The technology ensures near-total protection against airborne pathogens while maintaining ease of communication and comfort.
