Abstract
Example PPE fit systems are described that verify that a current fit of a PPE on a wearer is consistent with a previous fit test of the PPE on the particular wearer. During a fit test of a PPE, an image capture device captures an image of the wearer with the PPE that represents a verified reference for a fit of PPE of a same or similar type on the particular wearer. During a verification check, an image capture device captures an image of the wearer with the PPE. Visual features of the fit test image are compared with visual features of the verification image to determine whether the fit of the PPE on the wearer is correct. Differences between the visual features are alerted to the user, such as for correction, adjustment, or retest.
