Abstract

This paper explores shape-changing clothing to maintain the wearing comfort and augment user's thermoregulation. We propose a retractable structure with comfort sensitive actuator. The actuator is inspired by the breathing function of plant stomata opening to facilitate gas exchange. The proposed device is composed of retractable hole structures, temperature and humidity sensors, servomotors, and driving wires. When the values of clothing temperature and humidity reach outside the comfort zone, the proposed system can open or close the clothing hole structure accordingly. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed system, we compare the performance of a wearer in running condition with and without this system. It is verified that the proposed shape-changing clothing is valid for maintaining the wearing comfort in daily activities.
