RTX Core Control was originally developed on the principles of Mammalian thermoregulation. All mammals have specific regions of the body surface designed for dissipating excess heat from the body core to the environment – ie. a dog’s tongue, or rabbits’ ears. In humans, some of these surfaces are found in the palms of the hands. It is through these skin regions that humans dissipate heat through specialized blood vessels called arteriovenous anastomoses. The CoreControl™ cooling glove enhances heat extraction through these radiator surfaces by amplifying local blood flow using a hand held device that has the combination of carefully controlled temperature settings and a slight vacuum.
