Face Shield Dynamic Modelling Comparison
Singularity Engineering LLC conducted fluid dynamics modelling that compared the FreeFloe Face Shield design with a smaller disposable face shield design. The video above shows the coverage area and deflection results from the modelling study for our Face Shield. This computer model did not test and makes no representations or claims about the ability or effectiveness of the FreeFloe face shield to protect users or reduce the transmission of any virus or infection, including COVID-19. We likewise make no such claims.
