Masks are often said to be used to hide a person’s emotions. This face mask is not that kind of mask, but at least it looks cool!
A special face mask has been introduced at CES 2022. Qudi debuted the world’s first emotional LED mask at the event, showcasing its ability to display different expressions. The mask has a translucent glass eye goggle attached to a mouth coverage that contains 199 smart LED pixels.
The mask was invented by Mikhail Chumachenko, a 14-year-old who then founded the Qudi. Chumachenko shared that the prototype of the face mask covered only half of the face and contained 30 pixels. Now, the mask has more pixels and two modes. One mode corresponds to speech and shows different emotions. The other mode responds to the volume of music being played. For those interested, the Qudi Mask can be bought for $289.
