The “world’s tiniest wearable air purifier,” according to an IIT Delhi start-up, is as effective as an N95 face mask. Naso95 is an N95-grade nasal filter, according to the start-up Nanoclean Global. It adheres to the user’s nasal aperture and protects against germs, viruses, pollen, and air pollution.
The wearable air purifier, which comes in four sizes, provides better protection than a generic facemask or a loosely fitting face mask, according to the company. For its safety and efficiency, the product has been tested and approved by national and international labs. According to a release, the product may also be used by youngsters, who are more susceptible to airborne illnesses and pollutants.
The device, according to Rajesh Kumar Pathak, Secretary of Technology Development Board, may be of significant service to society and should be used by people of all ages. He also stated that the Technology Development Board, which is a statutory organization under the Department of Science and Technology, would want to assist the start-up in bringing the product to the general public.
M C Mishra, a former AIIMS director, believes that air pollution is a far greater threat than viruses. Lung cancer continues to be the most common kind of cancer, and a product like Naso95 may effectively address the problem of respiratory disorders in urban areas. During a pandemic, the device will be especially useful in situations where people must remove their masks for identification purposes, such as airports and security checks etc.
