Most of us have been there: an unexpected sprain, a swollen ankle, or skin irritated from windburn or sun. The typical advice? Ice it. Then maybe heat it later. But no one really tells you when to switch, or for how long. So we guess. We dig a cold pack out of the freezer, wrap it in a towel, and hope we’re doing the right thing. But healing shouldn’t rely on guesswork.
That’s the thinking Mtto Temperature-Controlled Patch, a concept device that doesn’t just apply cold or heat, but actually responds to what your body needs in real time.
Instead of relying on timers, guesswork, or back-and-forth internet advice, Mtto Temperature-Controlled Patch senses the skin’s condition, including temperature and inflammation levels, and adjusts itself. There’s no app to fumble with. No settings to scroll through. Just place it on, and it adapts to the rhythm of your recovery.
Designed by Mtto Design Studio, it’s made for daily life, slim, reusable, and designed with materials that feel good on the skin. It charges simply, stores easily, and avoids wasteful single-use cold packs or microwavable gel pads.
