Masks have many different needs, don't they? Some are for hay fever, some are for moms, and the big one is a big mask for dust control. The idea of turning a mask into an IoT device is simple and likely. I quickly googled "mask IoT" and found the following article.
HEXA, an IoT mask that blocks PM2.5, looks good
THE BIGGEST THING HEXA HAS GOING FOR IT IS ITS DEDICATED APP.
The app also displays the current state of exhalation, air quality data for each location, and the breathing of registered members. It's an attempt to build up big data about breathing.
If it is possible to perform respiratory function tests, including lung tests, by monitoring breathing, I feel that it could be used as an attempt to manage the health of employees at sites such as ironworks, which are prone to generating dust that is not friendly to the human body (sorry for the term).
I'm staring at the idea of protecting the air around us and the measures that will be taken, which will be accelerated by the spread of IoT devices. I will continue to watch the trends.
