Portable Heating and Temperature-Monitoring System with a Textile Heater Embroidered on the Facemask

[Image: see text] Personal heating systems are getting increasing interest because of the need to reduce the negative impact of cold weather on the health of people and animals. Heating the air before inhalation is of great importance as it can reduce the probability of various diseases. In this pap...

description [Image: see text] Personal heating systems are getting increasing interest because of the need to reduce the negative impact of cold weather on the health of people and animals. Heating the air before inhalation is of great importance as it can reduce the probability of various diseases. In this paper, we present a textile-based heater composed of commercial conductive threads, embroidered on an ordinary protective facemask. We also present the design and implementation details of the temperature monitoring and controlling circuit. Air temperature inside the facemask was monitored by a thermocouple placed in close proximity to the nose (nostrils). Preliminary testing revealed that the difference among temperatures in repeated heating cycles is in the range of ±1.5 °C. The response time for temperature increase from 29.9 to 40.5 °C was about 4 min, while the recovery time from 40.5 to 31.3 °C was about 4.3 min. Safety for human use and wireless data transmission to an application installed on a mobile phone are also demonstrated.
