People living with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) can have difficulty adapting to temperature changes, making day to day activities more difficult.
Sola is a thermoregulating wearable device that aims to automatically regulate the body temperature to give independence and comfort back to people living with MS.
This technology can be expanded to people experiencing menopause, hypothyroidism, and Parkinson's making the total addressable market size 66 million people in the United States.
