Abstract:

Disclosed embodiments describe approaches for warming a portion of a human body. The warming is based on heated apparel (e.g., a heated glove) coupled to an electrical power supply through a heater controller. The heated apparel (e.g., a glove) can be fabricated using a narrow knit electronic textile. A heater can be constructed from the narrow knit electronic textile. The heater is coupled to the heated apparel (e.g., a glove) for warming a portion (e.g., a hand) of a human body, wherein heating by the heater is accomplished using electrical power from the electrical power supply. The heater is controlled by a heater controller which is interposed between the heater and the electrical power supply.
