At the start of the Covid-19 pandemic, Razer began converting some of its manufacturing facilities to make face masks for frontline workers. So far, they have donated over a million face masks around the world to hospitals, governments and other healthcare organizations, but now Razer is giving away its own version of this now vital part. of our lives with its Project Hazel concept. Dubbed the smartest face mask in the world, Project Hazel has a clear, see-through design with a built-in voice amplifier to facilitate conversation with people around you, and it also cleans and disinfects itself via UV lamps at the inside its special charging case. Why does a face mask need a charging box I hear you ask? Well, it does have Razer Chroma RGB in it, doesn’t it?
Yes, you read correctly. RGB in a face mask.
However, don’t let those rainbow circles fool you, because while it looks like something straight out of Metro 2033 or The Division 2, Project Hazel is equipped with some serious anti-Covid tech. The first is its medical grade N95 respirator (or FFTP2 for those in Europe), which blocks at least 95% of airborne particles. This standard is widely used by healthcare workers in all fields, but while some more traditional N95 respirators may be difficult to breathe due to their ultra-tight fit and lack of ventilation, Razer has equipped the Project Hazel with Detachable active fans to help regulate airflow. inside the mask.
These fans and the mask itself can also be sanitized simply by placing them inside its charging case. It has four UV lights inside (two on the top, one on the back, and another on the front) that will sterilize everything in it while the mask is charging so you stay protected.
Project Hazel doesn’t stop there either, as it also features a built-in microphone and Razer’s patent-pending VoiceAmp technology to help make your speech clearer and less muffled. Combine that with its clear, see-through design that lets you see if someone is smiling / scowling at you (which also has built-in white LEDs to light up your face in low light conditions, I might add), and you shouldn’t. not have to do it. use big, emphatic hand gestures to just say, “Please walk away from me.”
Razer still doesn’t have a specific price or release date for Project Hazel, but it will certainly be here much sooner than their other recently announced CES concept product, Project Brooklyn. Razer told me they already have a working prototype, but as with all of their concept ideas, they will be making further tweaks and optimizations in the weeks and months to come to make sure it is consistent with all of them. the necessary safety standards without compromising on comfort or usability.
