Electrically Heated Cloth

Science Daily: Electrically heated textiles now possible via UMass Amherst research - Vapor deposition method for nano-coating fabric to create sewable, weavable, electrically heated material

summary - Skiers, crossing guards and others who endure frozen fingers in cold weather may look forward to future relief as manufacturers are poised to take advantage of a new technique for creating electrically heated cloth. Researchers have made gloves that keep fingers as warm as the palm of the hand.
