Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods for reducing temperatures of purified air from air-purifying respirators are provided.

Abstract: Various embodiments described herein illustrate a glove that includes an anterior portion and a posterior portion. The anterior portion is knitted seamlessly with the posterior portion to define a metacarpal region and a plurality of finger regions extending out from the metacarpal region. A first conductive pad is knitted on the anterior portion of the glove. The first conductive pad is knitted on a distal end portion of a first finger region. A second conductive pad knitted on the posterior portion of the glove. Further, the second conductive pad is knitted on a second finger region. An electronic device is removably attached to the posterior portion and is in electrical communication with the first conductive pad and the second conductive pad. The electronic device is triggered in an instance in which the first conductive pad contacts the second conductive pad.

Abstract: A system for adjustably and removably attaching a shroud to a helmet. The shroud for use with a helmet has a top shroud configured to attach to the helmet; an inner shroud configured to attach to the top shroud. The inner shroud has a band configured to tighten around a user's neck and an outer shroud configured to removably attach to the top shroud. The outer shroud is further configured to cover a user's shoulders. The shroud also has one or more removable attachments, wherein the top shroud attaches to the helmet via the one or more removable attachments.
