Abstract
A wearable accessory capable of communicating data to actuators or from sensors is disclosed. The wearable accessory includes a conductor wire disposed in a moldable medium according to a predetermined pattern, the moldable medium being an electrically insulating material, the conductor wire terminating at an input and an output.
Claims5
A wearable heat transfer accessory, comprising:
- a tubular member disposed in a moldable medium according to a predetermined pattern, the moldable medium having a thermal conductivity coefficient suitable for exchanging heating to or from a subject's body, the tubular member terminating at an inlet and an outlet;
- and
- a passive mechanism capable of heating a fluid if the fluid is introduced at the inlet and flows from the inlet to the outlet, where in the passive mechanism is a thermal reaction occurring in the fluid that can heat or cool the fluid.
