We developed an innovative protective face shield to guard against airborne viruses such as COVID-19, designed for medical staff and anyone who serves the public. Its key feature is flexibility: the lower part of the shield lifts or lowers so it converts easily between a full face shield and an eye shield, and it can be worn with or without a mask. The spherical design wraps around the face to block as much exposure as possible, while a forehead seal doubles as a comfort cushion and provides sealed protection for the upper face.

​

The shield is built for people who wear protective equipment for long periods. An adjustable distance from the face accommodates glasses, surgical eyewear and face masks, and the headband adjusts to fit heads of different sizes. Sourcepro took the project from initial concept and ergonomic studies through Computer Aided Design development to the first 3D printed trial samples, refining fit, comfort and ease of use at every stage.
