They designed a breathable, no-sweat workout suit that can keep your body "cool and dry" in the gym. If sweating and soggy clothes are stopping you from exercising, then researchers at Massachusetts Institute of Technology have good news for you! It has ventilating flaps that open/close according to the body's heat and sweat. So, how does the wearable "air conditioner" work? Let's know!
MIT develops self-ventilating workout suit
They have designed a breathable workout suit that can keep the body cool and dry in the gym. Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) researchers designed a breathable workout suitNew York:If sweating is your problem with workout, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) researchers have a new solution to offer. According to sensor readings, the flaps effectively removed sweat from the body and lowered skin temperature, more so than when participants wore a similar running suit with nonfunctional flaps. To demonstrate this last point, the researchers engineered moisture-sensitive cells to not only pull flaps open but also light up in response to humid conditions. The workout suit has ventilating flaps that open and close in response to the body's heat and sweat, and can make one feel like, in the words of one of the researchers, wearing an "air conditioner" on the back.
