MUMBAI, India, Feb. 13 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202521134626 A) filed by Mit Art, Design And Technology University, Pune, Maharashtra, on Dec. 31, 2025, for 'a wearable integrated with thermoregulation and energy-harvesting system and a method thereof.'
Inventor(s) include Paras Prashant Bhoj; Prof. Deepak Shah; Sahil Rahul Jadhav; Kaustubh Janardan Mestri; and Dr Ramachandra V Pujeri.
The application for the patent was published on Feb. 13, under issue no. 07/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to a wearable thermoregulating system (100) comprising a Phase-Change Material (PCM)-treated layer (102), a thermalspreading high-conductivity textile layer (104), a plurality of flexible thermoelectric modules (106), a heat-dissipation assembly with thin, solid-state piezoelectric micro-fans (108), a temperature-sensing assembly (110), an energy-10 harvesting assembly (112), and an on-body power management and control unit (114). The PCM-treated layer absorbs transient user-generated heat, while the thermal-spreading layer distributes thermal load to the thermoelectric modules, which extract heat via the Peltier effect. The micro-fans dissipate heat from module hot sides. The invention also provides a method (200) for regulating heat, 15 including absorbing (202) heat in the PCM layer, distributing (204) heat through the thermal-spreading layer, extracting (206) heat via the thermoelectric modules, dissipating (208) heat with the micro-fans, harvesting (210, 212) energy from user movement and the Seebeck effect, and controlling (214, 216) power delivery using the control unit."
