MIT Invention Could Replace Air Conditioning
Wristify was invented by MIT student researchers and aims to replace air conditioning and heating units in an energy efficient, inexpensive way. A thermoelectric bracelet sends tailored pulses of hot or cold waveforms to the wrist, which makes the wearer sense that they are being cooled or heated.
