Simple origami face shield can be folded from single sheet of plastic

Researchers at the University of Cambridge and the University of Queensland have created the HappyShield, an origami face shield that is made by folding a sheet of clear plastic.

Designed by the University of Cambridge's Centre for Natural Material Innovation and University of Queensland's Folded Structures Lab, the HappyShield is made using curved-crease origami.

By folding along the curved-creases on the template any clear sheet material can be combined with a piece of elastic to create a face shield.
