UT Austin Engineers Create Jacket That Harvests Water From Air
Engineers at the University of Texas at Austin developed a jacket that collects moisture from the air, potentially providing a portable water source. The technology uses a special fabric to absorb and release water. This innovation could aid hikers or disaster victims in arid environments.
