ABSTRACT
In the video, we showcased "Second Skin", a self-transforming garment that is activated by living bacteria. The synthetic bio-skin reacts to body heat and sweat, causing flaps around heat zones to open, enabling sweat to evaporate and cool down the body through an organic material flux.

Preliminary Investigation on Wrist Temperature Control by Wearable Peltier Armband
UbiComp/ISWC '22 Adjunct: Adjunct Proceedings of the 2022 ACM International Joint Conference on Pervasive and Ubiquitous Computing and the 2022 ACM International Symposium on Wearable ComputersDue to COVID-19 pandemic, body temperature measurement in commercial facilities is performed using a non-contact method. However, if the human body can be controlled in some way to disguise body temperature, a thermometer would have difficulty detecting ...

UIST '19 Adjunct: Adjunct Proceedings of the 32nd Annual ACM Symposium on User Interface Software and TechnologyWhile mobile technologies are moving closer to our body and novel wearable gadgets and smart textile interfaces emerge, current approaches are often expensive individual solutions for specific applications and lack reconfiguration possibilities. With ...
Thermal Shock Resistance of Skin Tissue
Understanding the mechanisms of skin behavior under thermal shock is crucial for medical treatments. However, no reasonable criteria are available for the maximum thermal loadings that skin tissue can survive. To address this, in this paper we analyzed ...
