Akıllı ve Güç Destekli Anti Enfeksiyon Yüz Maskesi Geliştirilmesi

Abstract

The COVID-19 virus, which emerged at the end of 2019 had affected the whole world and had different effects in many areas. One of these areas was respiratory protective equipment technologies. In normal, masks are products that are mostly used in environments where there is a factor such as gas, smoke, or dust that threatens to breathe. Due to the airborne transmission of the COVID-19 virus, masks were used in all areas of human interaction during the epidemic period. As the use of masks became widespread, there was feedback about the products and it was revealed that these products had deficiencies and aspects to be improved. In this study, the deficiencies of the mask products that came to light during the COVID-19 epidemic period and the aspects that can be improved were examined and a smart and powered respiratory protective half-face mask was developed that can be a solution to these problems. The mask produced has two electronic fans and can be controlled via the mobile application by Bluetooth connection. In this way, the user can supplement the filtered clean air into the mask when necessary. In addition, the air evacuated outside the mask is filtered and then given to the environment. As a result, the problems related to mask products that emerged during the COVID-19 epidemic were resolved with the developed mask.
