Next-Generation Custom-Fit Reusable Respiratory Protective Device with Continuous Fit Monitoring. S Park, Y Tian, M Bergman, Dr. Ziqing Zhuang, J Pollard, S Jayaraman.

As the first step in customizing the prototype, a set of 21 facial anthropometric landmarks and 15 dimensions was selected for the design. The faces of three members of the research team were scanned using a 3dMD digital scanning system. From these scans, algorithms were developed to create digital representations of the contours of the RPD frame.

Flat Fold and Cup-Shaped N95 Filtering Facepiece Respirator Face Seal Area and Pressure Determinations: A Stereophotogrammetry Study. G Niezgoda, JH Kim, RJ Roberge, SM Benson.

Date: May 2013. Source: Journal of Occupational and Environmental Hygiene, Volume 10, Issue 8, pp 419-424. Abstract: Twenty subjects underwent quantitative respirator fit testing with two styles (flat fold, cup-shaped) of N95 filtering facepiece respirators (N95 FFRs). Passing a fit test was followed by stereophotogrammetry to determine the face seal area and computation of seal…
