E-Jacket

Electronics & Telecommunication Engineering

The climatic conditions are varying from era to era. Both the temperature conditions i.e. hot or cold are very dangerous to the health. Excessive exposure to heat causes heat stress and excessive exposure to cold causes cold stress. In extremely hot environment, the most serious problem is heat stroke. At very cold temperature, the most serious problem is the risk of hypothermia or dangerous overcooling of the body. Sometimes, these unusual climatic conditions, may cause unfortunate death of people. So we designed a jacket, named as “E-Jacket”, which gives better protection to the people living in extreme weather conditions. This jacket maintains the desired temperature inside the jacket, naturally. The E-Jacket is very much useful for our soldiers, working in extreme weather conditions. By using this jacket the user can control and monitor the internal temperature inside the jacket, by using the peltier effect. GPS & GSM modules are also used in this jacket to trace the location of the soldier. All these devices are controlled centrally by arduino lilypad (Atmega 328V).
