Razer project hazel
Be sure to check out the Shacknews Project Hazel page to learn more about the mask and stop by the E3 2021 page for all the other announcements from this major week in gaming. This sort of positive change is exactly what we like to see. Project Hazel was just a concept at one point but, following the positive feedback from the community, Razer opted to make it a reality. Consumers will need to visit the Project Hazel page on the Razer website for more information and to sign up for notifications for when it becomes available. Because of the supply limitations, Razer plans to do “sale by drops”. Project Hazel is scheduled to go on sale in early Q4 2021. It also purportedly uses less plastic than traditional masks. The mask in question, currently being referred to as Project Hazel, features some unique elements including rechargeable filters, transparent design, interior lighting and more. We weren’t expecting to hear about anything else, but Razer CEO Min-Liang Tan announced that its Project Hazel mask will actually go on sale, starting early in the fourth quarter of this year. Razer, one of the biggest manufacturers of computer peripherals, announced at E3 2021 that the purely conceptual idea of an RBG and “gamer-fied” mask is in early production, with a release date slated for the end of this year.
Razer's Project Hazel originally started as a proof of concept but has now entered production. Razer did not disappoint with its presentation on June 14, and even took consumers by surprise when Razer CEO Min-Liang Tan revealed that Project Hazel was no longer just a concept, but a reality. There are announcements about games of all creeds, but some of the most unique things come from the tech side. Razer Project Hazel has so many customizations to their face mask prototype that will help ensure safety. Their design focuses on 5 key areas to help ensure the highest degree of safety with the best quality of life enhancements. Many more big game showcases and streams are still to come this summer, leading up to Gamescom, so see our summer games stream schedule to stay up to date.E3 2021 is always an interesting event. Razer Project Hazel is an intelligent face mask prototype. Gosh darnit, I was looking forward to goofing out with my new green mouth, Razer, why must you disappoint me so?Į3 2021 may be over but our memories live on - see everything on our E3 hub. Alas, the filter only lets you switch between the black and white versions of the mask, and doesn't simulate its new interior RGB lighting effect. In the meantime, you can currently hop over to Razer's Instagram page and try out their new Project Hazel AR filter if you want to get a sneak peek of how it's going to look (as modelled by my good self over on the right). We still don't know how much they're going to cost, though, but hopefully we'll get another update closer to launch. When you reach the top and masks are available, you'll receive an email. Those who want to buy one will need to sign up on Razer's website, and they'll be put in a big virtual queue. Likewise, because of the, and I quote, "insane demand" for it, masks will be arriving in batches as and when they come in from the factory. Razer said they're currently aiming for "an early Q4" launch at the end of the year, so it's probably going to be sometime in October or November. The launch of Project Hazel is still some months away yet. It's still going to be using replacable N95 grade filters, and as mentioned, they're keeping the clear, see-through design, too. Other Project Hazel features have remained the same. They also said they're going to make sure that every mask is lab-tested to meet the same BFE (or 'bacterial filtration effciency') rating as the regular surgical masks they've been making over the last year, too.
Still, interior RGB lights aside, I can definitely get behind the new anti-fog coating, and it's also going to have a secure silicon face seal, too, according to Razer, which wasn't part of the original design. Surely, having a green mouth is going to have the opposite effect, as people won't be listening to what you're saying - they'll be staring, transfixed at your rainbow-illuminated chops. It's a great idea, but I can't help but chuckle at the over-the-top 'gamer' implementation of it. The filters already had RGB rings around them, but as the bloke modelling the latest concept mask up the top there shows, you can now have RGBs beamed into your mouth as well. The serious line on this addition is, of course, to make it easier to see what you're saying in low-lighting conditions, as the mask itself is see-through. After listening to community feedback, Razer have added some new features to their upcoming N95 respirator, including a new anti-fog coating and, my favourite, interior RGB lighting. In addition to announcing their brand-new Blade 14 laptop last night, Razer also used their E3 2021 presser to give us an update on their Project Hazel smart face mask, which was first announced earlier in the year at CES.
