Coronavirus: an anti-covid headset hits the mark on Kickstarter -

The coronavirus pandemic will have shed light on the ingenuity of some.

Since the start of the health crisis, several concepts of anti-covid gadgets have indeed emerged, in particular on the crowdfunding platform Kickstarter.

No more revolutionary mouth masks, the last bulwark against Covid-19 is a helmet or rather a full face mask.

The concept is surprising.

Fully modular, the "White" mask looks like a Daft Punk helmet.

It fully protects the wearer's face since it covers both their eyes, nose and mouth.

Thanks to two reusable and replaceable filters, the White allows you to enjoy fresh and clean air with each breath for up to 14 days.

The mask is 95% effective at filtering out 0.3 micron particles, according to its designers.

A helmet that also protects your anonymity

More than protection against the coronavirus, the White full face mask helps protect one's identity since it covers the entire face of its wearer.

Its creators make it a selling point and do not hesitate to play on fear to sell it with slogans such as “the only mask for an uncertain future”.

In addition to the fact that it ensures the anonymity of its wearer - his voice can even be modified - the mask can also be personalized thanks to interchangeable magnetic panels and adapts to the face of its users.

Astonishing arguments which have already convinced many people.

In less than a month, White's crowdfunding campaign has raised no less than $ 272,000 at the time of this writing, from 2,600 backers.

Figures that should certainly continue to increase over the coming weeks.

The campaign will end in a good month.

Le Blanc will retail for $ 149 when it launches, but for now it's possible to save tens of dollars by participating in the fundraising campaign.

The first deliveries are scheduled for March 2021.
