Women typically prefer temperatures five degrees Fahrenheit warmer than men, according to a 2015 report by the Dutch Maastricht University Medical Center. “It's very sudden, and pretty strong,” she recalls of using the Wave herself. After three minutes of cooling, testers averaged feeling 5.8 degrees cooler after three minutes of heating, they averaged feeling 4.6 degrees warmer. The Wave has seven temperature levels, and Zhang's experiment used the more moderates levels three and five. “We found this incredible body of work by researchers at the Center for the Built Environment at the University of California, Berkeley that had already conducted the fundamental research showing how local sensations can improve personal comfort,” says Smith. It was June, and engineering students Matt Smith, Sam Shames, and David Cohen-Tanugi grew sick of having to wear sweatshirts in order not to freeze. The Embr Wave's development began five years ago in an over-air-conditioned laboratory at MIT. It launched to backers in 2018 and later went on sale to the rest of the public for $299. The Wave exceeded its Kickstarter funding goal more than six-fold. A button turns it hotter or colder, and when it heats up or cools, your inner wrist you feel as if you turned on a personal thermostat only for you. The Wave, which looks like an Apple Watch worn on the inside of the wrist, promised to regulate the wearer's temperature. What if you had your own personal thermostat? In September 2017, Embr Labs pitched the good public on a product that could do just that. Soon enough you've waged a thermostat war against your coworkers, sobbing and shivering into your sweater as you wonder how humanity sunk so low. Air conditioners blow the same on everybody, though not everybody is comfortable at the same temperature. The temperature in the room is not personal.
