Abstract

The SpeeD Vel project proposes a systematic study to analyze the velocity of droplets in exhaled air during different speech conditions (normal speech, loud projected speech, or in interaction), with the objective of precisely defining the dispersion of the droplets. and provide the health authorities with objective data concerning the risk of contamination.
