About The Mask That Ate The Virus भाइरस नष्ट गर्ने मास्क
स्विस बायोटेक कम्पनी लिभिङगार्डले पुन: प्रयोग गर्न मिल्ने मास्कका लागि एउटा कपडा विकास गर्यो, जसले सम्पर्कमा आउनासाथ ब्याक्टेरिया, फङ्गस र भाइरस (कोभिड १९ समेत) निष्क्रिय पारेर नष्ट गर्छ। यो विचारलाई प्याकेजिङमा जीवन्त बनाइएको छ: मास्क एउटा स्टेराइल प्याकेजमा आउँछ। यसमा जोडिएको प्लास्टिकको पट्टीलाई माथि र तल सार्दा एउटा भाइरसको चित्रात्मक प्रस्तुति एनिमेट हुन्छ, जुन यस प्रक्रियामा खाइन्छ, र यसले निराशाजनक दिनहरूमा अत्यन्त आवश्यक हास्यरस थप्छ। परिवारका सदस्यहरूबीच मास्क अदलबदल हुने र त्यसैले हुने क्रस-कन्टामिनेसनबाट जोगिन, प्रत्येक मास्कलाई अनुकूलित बनाउन विभिन्न रङका एडजस्टमेन्ट क्लिपहरू छुट्टै स्लिभमा आउँछन्।

- Production Technology
- Livinguard treated textile, styrofoam, EVA
- Design Challenge
- Finding the right materials and printing technology that would allow for a highly accurate production needed for the animation to work.
- Research
- To bring the virus-eliminating process to life in the packaging, we made use of a century old technique: Moiré Animation – creating an optical illusion of animated frames, with the graphic depiction of a virus getting 'eaten' in the process.
- Inspiration
- Swiss biotech company Livinguard developed a textile for reusable masks that inactivates bacteria, fungi, and viruses (incl. Covid 19) upon impact.
The product idea is brought to life in the packaging:
The mask comes in a sterile package. An attached plastic strip animates – when slid up and down – a virus that is getting eaten in the process, adding some urgently needed humor in desperate days. - Project Duration
- The product was launched in May 2020. Up to date 5 Million masks were produced. Market: China/Worldwide
- Operation Flow
- The task was to communicate a new, unique product advantage to the consumer via the packaging: that a simple textile can provide protection, every single day.
- Patents
