Patent ID: 11528955

Abstract:
A personal protective headgear is an apparatus fully enclosing a user's head, protecting not only from potential contamination of breathing air but also from potential physical damage. A facial shield is hermetically sealed around the front-facing portion of the apparatus, preventing entrance of unfiltered air. Fans direct air through a set of filters, thus cleansing air entering the apparatus. The apparatus may further be equipped with a variety of interactivity modules, including cameras, speakers, lights, displays, and more. A set of sensors may be utilized to monitor the user and the user's surroundings in different conditions. The apparatus may also include wireless capabilities that allow the wearer to transfer information to and from a remote user, thereby allowing the user to follow instructions or otherwise interact with a guide or other such remote companion. Swappable battery packs allow the user to avoid losing power, even while replenishing power supplies.
