Oceanit’s Advanced Personal Cooling AI Pairs With Cooling Garments To Keep Wearers Cool In The Face Of A Warming Climate
As climate change drives global temperatures higher, extreme heat has become a silent killer, claiming more lives annually than hurricanes or floods. In 2023 alone, heat stress was the root cause of 2,300 deaths in the U.S., with experts warning of a 370% increase in heat-related fatalities by 2050.
A healthy human body maintains an internal temperature at approximately 37°C (98.6°F) that fluctuates with time of the day, level of physical activity, hydration, clothing and emotional state. An increase in core body temperature of more than 1°C should only occur during illness but can happen when environmental conditions are more than the body’s ability to cope with extreme conditions. Dehydration, decreased physical performance, and decreased brain function are just some of the dangers faced when the body’s core temperature climbs too high.
Essential workers, military personnel, and vulnerable populations are at the front of this climate crisis, yet current cooling solutions often fail to provide lasting, adaptive relief. To address this challenge, Oceanit developed CoreSense, AI cooling software designed to work seamlessly with any to personalize heat relief with precision and efficiency.
CoreSense combines commercially available advanced sensors, adaptive algorithms, and robust data acquisition to create an intelligent cooling platform. Its sensors monitor key metrics such as body temperature and heart rate, while the adaptive algorithm dynamically adjusts cooling hardware based on individual needs and activity levels. This ensures users experience optimal performance over longer periods, with optimized power consumption, making it a breakthrough in personal cooling technology. For the Department of Defense, it signifies increased mission durations with reduced risk of thermal injuries.
Initially, CoreSense was designed to meet the critical needs of military personnel operating in extreme environments while wearing heavy personal protective equipment (PPE). Warfighters face grueling conditions that can lead to severe thermal strain, impairing both their performance and safety. Traditional cooling systems are inefficient for prolonged use, adding unnecessary battery weight and failing to adapt to an individual’s personal thermal demands. CoreSense addresses these shortcomings by providing personalized cooling that allows soldiers to maintain focus, endurance, and safety during extended missions, even in the harshest climates.
Beyond military applications, CoreSense is now being adapted for essential workers in industries such as construction, firefighting, and manufacturing. It has also been integrated into hazardous materials suits, ensuring critical temperature regulation for individuals working in high-risk environments. Whether on the battlefield or in demanding job sites, CoreSense empowers users to stay safe, focused, and productive, even in extreme heat.
As part of Oceanit’s cooling gear collection, 19°N, CoreSense pairs perfectly with innovations like the Active Cooling Suit to deliver unparalleled cooling performance.
Through CoreSense, Oceanit empowers individuals to thrive in extreme environments and paves the way for a safer, cooler future.
