About the work
Today almost everyone knows what climate control is. Using this term in relation to residential and office spaces, vehicle interiors, and open-air areas has become quite commonplace.
But Indian enthusiast-inventors have managed to successfully apply modern semiconductor technologies to create clothing with climate control. Using special polymer plates sewn into the fabric base, they made it possible to control the temperature under clothing made from this fabric.
Kranthi Kiran Vistakula founded his own company, Dhama Innovations, with an office near Hyderabad and started by developing a vest that lets its owner regulate the microclimate inside it. He has now gathered dozens of young like-minded people around his laboratory. The technology proved so successful that today the company's specialists have already learned to create scarves, footwear, and even tableware with adjustable temperature.
All the products developed by the Indian enthusiasts can run on compact batteries, which in turn are recharged by movement or by sunlight. A fully charged battery can keep the entire product fully operational for eight hours.
Tests conducted by the company and by specially involved military personnel demonstrated that the clothing created allows its owner to feel quite comfortable in conditions of high humidity and temperature typical of the local climate.
At the same time, Indian army soldiers who used the vests in high-altitude conditions claim that they also successfully protect against frosts of several dozen degrees below zero. The vest itself weighs about a kilogram and barely restricts its wearer's movements.
Frostbite of the extremities among Indian army soldiers is a fairly serious problem, and the boots created with the new technology received the most enthusiastic reviews from the soldiers who took part in the experiment.
