Technology company Razer has developed a conceptual design for a clear plastic face mask with lights and a built-in sound system to improve social interaction during the pandemic.
Called Project Hazel, the mask would be transparent in order to allow the wearer to use gestures such as smiling while speaking.
Razer unveiled the design at CES 2021, which is normally held in Las Vegas but was held online this year due to coronavirus. The mask's batteries would charge wirelessly in its box
Project Hazel would also include ventilator pods to regulate airflow and filter airborne particles, which Razer said could give the masks "N95 medical-grade respirator protection".

These detachable pods could be sanitised by being placed inside the mask's wireless charging box, which would have disinfecting UV lights.
