Abstract: Traditional helmets primarily provide protection against physical impacts but do not offer adequate protection from airborne pollutants, dust particles, harmful microorganisms, or toxic gases. With increasing levels of air pollution and health risks associated with contaminated air, there is a growing need for protective equipment that ensures both physical safety and respiratory protection.To address these concerns, a Helmet with HEPA Filter is proposed. This advanced helmet integrates a High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filtration system within the helmet structure to filter and purify the air inhaled by the user. The filtration unit is capable of removing up to 99.97% of airborne particles, including dust, pollen, smoke, bacteria, and other microscopic contaminants.The helmet incorporates an air intake system, HEPA filtration module, and controlled airflow mechanism that ensures a continuous supply of purified air to the wearer. The system may include a compact fan or passive airflow design to maintain proper ventilation and breathing comfort.This helmet is particularly suitable for motorcyclists, industrial workers, healthcare personnel, construction workers, and individuals exposed to polluted environments. By combining impact protection and air purification, the Helmet with HEPA Filter provides a safer and healthier solution for modern environmental challenges
