EMBR Wave Bracelet Personal Thermostat

This wearable device is a personal thermostat that is designed to keep you comfortable — even when it’s unbearably hot outside. The Embr Wave is a wristband — about the size of most smartwatches — that harnesses temperature to improve your overall comfort. It features a magnetic wristband, light bar, aluminum heat sink, a cooling/warming plate, and a Micro USB charging port (cable included).

The concept of the Embr Wave is that it targets the temperature-sensitive skin on the wrist. In theory, the device should have the same effect on your body as when you place your hands over the fireplace in the winter or hold an ice cube on your skin during the summer. It works through conduction and direct contact with your skin.
 

“It’s a product for people that are too hot or too cold, that offers thermal relief,” explains Embr Labs co-founder Sam Shames. “What it does is it heats and cools one spot on your body and helps you improve your comfort, without changing your core temp.”

The device sends waves of warm or cool energy through the warming/cooling plate. The Embr Wave was developed at MIT and is powered by patent-pending technology. The battery is said to last for 2-3 days with ‘normal’ use.

The Embr Wave is definitely a unique device. It fits in the wearable category, but it’s not a watch or fitness band. It exists for one purpose — to comfort you.
