A 3D&nbsp;company in Istanbul has a solution for those who are tired of weraing masks all the time.

It has invented a mask tool which can be attached behind the&nbsp;head to relieve the pressure on the&nbsp;ears and the&nbsp;nose.

Eating is also possible while wearing a mask, as per an invention&nbsp;in Israel. The mask opens up automatically or using a hand remote.

The way we open doors is also set to change and that's not all.&nbsp;

A 3D&nbsp;printed tool lets users open and close doors without touching the handle. The touchless tool also allows people&nbsp;to safely get into elevators and press buttons.

The next big challenge is to test as many people as possible.

Danish researchers have now developed a fully automated robot that can take coronavirus swabs.

When a patient presents an ID-card, the robot prepares a sampling kit and performs the swab test.

The robot uses cameras to find the right part of the throat which not&nbsp;only protects health workers from being exposed to the virus but&nbsp;also helps ensure accuracy.

Artists wear colourful "deconfinement hats" made of paper mache and inspired by Song dynasty headwear, for social distancing, at 59 Rivoli&nbsp;gallery&nbsp;in&nbsp;Paris&nbsp;as it prepares a general reopening later in the week, following the outbreak of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) in France, June 3, 2020|REUTERS

Artists say the hats don't just help fight the virus but also stop people from whispering.

Dominique Pouzol, member of "59 Rivoli" artists collective and creator of "deconfinement hats", asked about song dynasty inspiration, saying: "apparently back in the day, this was already used to prevent officials who wore these hats from whispering. and so, there was already this notion of social distancing, of not getting too close."

New challenges demand new solutions. This is what the new normal looks like.
