The LG PuriCare Wearable Air Purifier was debuted by the brand at CES 2021 as a wearable technology product for consumers to make use of in the new normal as they seek out ways to get back to their routine in a safe manner. The face mask makes use of two replaceable H13 HEPA filters that sit right in front of the cheek section and will go to work removing 99% of bacteria, 99.7% of viruses and allergens that would otherwise be inhaled. The unit features a patented respiratory sensor that will recognize the breathing of the wearer to adjust the dual fans automatically for each filter for easier breathing.
The LG PuriCare Wearable Air Purifier is equipped with a battery that will last between four and eight hours, depending on the fan speed. The unit comes with a UV case for storing, charging and sanitizing the face mask.
