"Air conditioning" shirt

July 6, 2012 18:47

A group of graduates from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT, USA) have just launched a temperature-controlled shirt product called “Apollo”, inspired by the temperature control technology of astronauts' suits.

Accordingly, Apollo shirts use the main material called phase-change material (PCM), which is a substance capable of storing and releasing a large amount of energy.

Specifically, the PCM material in Apollo air-conditioned shirts can absorb heat to cool the body when it's hot and vice versa - release heat to warm the body when it's cold.

Finally, the outer coating of this shirt can control bacteria that cause body odor.

According to the online science site phys.org, the Apollo temperature-regulating shirt will hit the market this summer for about $130 each.

In addition to applying new technology, the MIT student group also focused on the "simple but perfect" Apollo shirt fashion style.
