  2. Description of Technology An air-conditioning garment system consisting of an undergarment fitted with detachable tube network and an electro-mechanical heating/cooling device (EMD), providing next-to-skin cooling/warm air for thermoregulation. • Breathable undershirt embedded with tube network. • Supplying of next-to-skin moving air for thermoregulation. • Sensing of skin temperature and wireless communication using fabric antenna • Intelligent control of microclimate. • Efficient and compact thermoelectric energy conversion unit.

  4. Elderly care Medical (Multiple Sclerosis, Thermoregulatory disorders )

  5. Value Proposition and Uniqueness • Improved personal comfort, particularly in extreme conditions. • HVAC energy saving for indoor occupants. • Effective cooling/heating function (up to 23 watts cooling and 18 watts heating). • Portable personal air-conditioning. • Machine washable of the undergarment after detaching the tube network and the electro-mechanical heating/cooling device (EMD). • Little effect on choice of outer wear and appearance. • Affordable (~$10 for undergarment, ~$200 for the EMD unit which can be used for 3 to 5 years).
