Description

https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/17tSVolmNP6738Waj28vdONl4EJAXNMyZTMll-iX0U0g/edit#slide=id.p (https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/17tSVolmNP6738Waj28vdONl4EJAXNMyZTMll-iX0U0g/edit#slide=id.p) The snap-on face visor/shield was designed based on feedback from the users, mostly frontline medical care workers and doctors faced with PPE* shortages The goal of the project was to design face to address the following requirement points Designed for reusability, ease of maintenance and sanitization, with less to no hard-to-reach nooks that trap contamination Easy to install and use, with removable/adjustable front A4 transparent sheet orientation and height Able to be used in conjunction with prescription eyeglasses as well as masks/respirators (e.g. N95, FFP3) Avoid punching holes in the plastic sheets, a possible contamination entry point, and reduce manual work of preparing the plastic sheets with a hole puncher Comfortable to be worn for long hours, without adding sponge which is easily contaminated and unable to be sterilized effectively. Balanced with ease of printing with a range of 3d printer models and materials (PLA, PETG, ABS). Optimized for smaller footprint for printing on small form factor home printers (200mm x 150mm beds) Not significantly longer to print with comparable designs and size Options for protecting contamination from above as needed with a top cover component
