BioLogic - heat-venting clothing that unfurls in high humidityCreated by a team of researchers at MIT, BioLogic is a ‘breathable workout suit’ that uses the latest advances in microbial cell technology to respond to increases in body temperature during workouts. The cells react to changes in humidity, and when appropriately applied to material can cause the fabric to curl in on itself. Applied to these workout garments as a series of scales down the back where heat increases most dramatically, the technology exposes the wearer’s skin to let air in and help in lowering body temperature. So meticulous were the team involved that the scales have all been specifically crafted one-by-one to have the most effect possible. Complex maps of body heat, body sweat and overall movement created a hybrid layout of where said flaps should be and how large they should be made. Similar technology has been utilised in ventilation systems before (see my previous post on the Hygroscope project here) but I haven’t seen it so beautifully worked into clothing.
