The Micrashell was designed by Production Club, and includes a helmet, filtration system and an array of LED lighting. They hope it will get crowds back in venues and at festivals without the need for social distancing.

According to  Miguel Risueno, head of inventions for Production Club, “Micrashell is a solution for bringing people together safety, it’s a half suit that kind of takes your safety and your security in terms of being close to airborne particles or viruses to the next level.”

Despite boasting a futuristic design, snap-in canisters can also be incorporated into the suit to allow drinking and vaping while wearing them.

Riseuno added that fans would ideally rent the suit from venues, with staff responsible for sanitizing them after each use.

“We said we still need to find a solution because people are still going out. People are still going to party and still skipping social distance measures… With our solution, we are trying to make space available for everyone because our solution depends on your own footprint rather than distancing yourself,” Riseuno explained.

While the team is working as quickly as possible to get the suit on the market, there is not yet a timeline for availability.
