The Aegis
a high-tech jacket that features sensors for the most common urban poisons. Designed by Nieuwe Heren and design agency based in the Netherlands, the parka lights up when it detects hazardous levels of ammonia, carbon dioxide, and benzene. (The brighter the LEDs, the worse the air quality.) If getting out of Dodge isn’t an option, a built-in respirator with an activated carbon filter lets you breathe easier.
But that not all…
The garment itself uses Schoeller Ceraspace , a textured fabric derived from ceramic particles, which are far more abrasion- and heat-resistant then leather. It’s lined with with Schoeller PCM, a specialized textile that uses millions of Phase Change Materials microcapsules to balance out extreme temperatures in your personal ecosystem.

Lead researcher Xiaodong Li said his team knew that future body armor would need a flexible power source. And because the scientists work in South Carolina, which used to have a big cotton industry, they thought,
‘Why not use a cotton T-shirt as the energy device?’
Although others have used cotton in devices, Li said that to the best of his knowledge his research group is the first to activate a cotton T-shirt and build it into a super capacitor. Their device’s performance is on par with other carbon-based super capacitors, according to their testing. After 1,000 cycles it had 97.3 percent retention.
“This is a very simple, low-cost process, and it’s green,” Li said. In addition to starting with a renewable plant-based material, he and his research group estimate that using cotton directly from textile mills could be as much as 10 times cheaper than chemically processing coal or petroleum into activated carbon.
