A couple years ago I started a project for a Microclimate Backpack, essentially a wearable cooling vest powered by a reservoir of icewater. It worked but was uncomfortable and the wearer risked hypothermia. I found a company online, RigidHvac, that manufactures all-in-one refrigeration units. These only weigh about 10lb or so and can be battery powered. I’d like to convert this into a wearable backpack as a proof-of-concept.
