PROJECT ACTIVITY-2
NCPE, NIPER-G being a premier Institute of National Importance endeavors to help the
country in fighting coronavirus through quick validated prototype/product development and
deployment. NIPER-G is committed to provide a useful contribution cum solution in terms of
developing protective gears to avoid the spread of COVID-19 especially from bare hands or
contaminated surface COVID-19 transmission.
Deliverables & Working: Therefore, NIPER-G designed, developed & validated a 3D-printed
antimicrobial face-shield to control the spread of novel coronavirus. Careful analyses of
several resources for risk measurement and on how viruses spread through other body
cavities like oral, ophthalmic & olfactory, etc. Thereby NIPER-G arrived to a solution to
fabricate a 3D printed object to avoid further passing on COVID-19 transmission from one
person to others.
Salient Features: The interesting features are: easy-to-design, rapid development of the
porotypes, low cost, easy to wear, antimicrobial face shield, transparent, excellent chemical
stability, non-fragile and easy to clean with the existing sanitizers or any alcoholic disinfectant.
