One widely-disliked part of wearing a face mask is the inability to see the lower half of a person's face. Many designs have come up with ideas to counteract this, be it a mask with an actual picture of your (or someone else's) mouth printed on to the fabric, or a see-through panel to allow visual access. But how about a more high-tech solution?
