As technological advancement is seen everywhere in the world and can be felt in every sphere of our life. Economist said that the more supply means the more demands. So with the advancement of technology people expect more comfort or more features the make the life easier.

In tex-jack we will use conductive textile on the structure of the fabric to increase the heat, if we use this system we don’t have to use heating layer.

Next we will use dye sensitized solar cell to produce electricity, besides dye sensitized solar cell absorb heat that will help to reduce the temperature.

The jacket has the ability to dry itself.




We simply call it TEX-JACK I and it s a jacket which can be perfect choice for them who want to make his life more comfortable. It is a jacket which is capable of being self heated using the coil inside the jacket by simply pressing the switch. It has built in solar panel to charge its 4000mah lithium ion battery with very light weight. The jacket contains sufficient insulation layers to prevent the body from any heat issue, besides the heat is not that much that it will harm the human body.
