Co-terminator Shield Technology & Product

Hardik’s approach to problem solving is to design and develop a model which has protection against virus, bacteria and other harmful elements through a face covering shield with air cooling system, ionising system, air purifying system, SOS system and mobile application connectivity.

This shield is specially designed for both non-medical and medical practitioners, doctors and other paramedical staff who are devoting themselves for betterment of our nation.

Air Cooling Technology:  A compact cooler will be placed at the waist of the wearer that will be connected to the shield through a sealed air supplier pipe passing through ice gel to maintain a comfortable temperature within the shield. The cooler is light and easy to carry and will not be felt heavy to the wearer.

Air Purification: The cooled air circulated is purified by passing it from 60 PPI copper filter which is medically proven by many foreign educational institution.

Ionisers: The ioniser generates negative ions, rendering airborne particles/aerosol droplets negatively charged and electrostatically attracts them to a positively charged collector plate. Trapped viruses are then identified by reverse transcription quantitative real-time PCR. The device enables unique possibilities for rapid and simple removal of virus from air and offers possibilities to simultaneously identify and prevent airborne transmission of viruses.

Shell: The Shell of the shield is designed to offer a futuristic and comfortable feel. Its compact design covers the eyes, nose, and mouth which are the most delicate organs for the transmission of viruses and bacteria, etc.

Android/IOS Mobile Application: Mobile application connectivity is relating our product with technological advancements. It will allow users to use some features like measurement of body temperature, tests, sleep time, medicine reminder at some security features.

SOS: Security system is beneficial for protection of women, children, or an individual in case of emergency.

 

QR Code: A QR code is placed at the back of the shell. At the time of emergency person can scan that code to share their current location to all their emergency contacts selected in the mobile application.

With the support of subject matter experts & consultants; Hardik managed to get the first patent pending prototype developed successfully.
