Guy looks like a maker/tinkerer. The one video shows him talking near his work station and looks pretty nice, i also appreciated the Umbrella Corp stickers on the baby carrier.

He spent a month on it? Sounds like more of a vanity project for the dad. If it was important then doing something ok quickly would have been more important than taking a month to do something great.
In Heinlein’s “Farmer in the sky”,one character can’t adapt to the low pressure on Ganymede (which has been terraformed to.add an atmosphere).

Artist Patrick Farley gave us the heads up 20+ years ago.
Wish I could find the complete version of his “The Jain’s Death.”
This dad in China created a ‘baby pod’ suit to protect his child from coronavirus. His ingenious DIY design was reportedly based on the action game “Death Stranding.”
I’m going to have to stop you right there…

That Air Master looks interesting. The readouts seem to be only showing CO2, temp and Relative Humidity.
(The ali readouts look a bit shooped.)

Still, Winnie the poo on the interview is a nice touch! Xi will appreciate.
Guy is a bona fide genius. It also underlines that we have available the means to cobble together useful apparatus to cope with this crisis.
