Get Physical: New fabric has been developed that automatically cools or insulates depending on conditions. This material senses the heat around it and either contracts to trap heat or loosens to let heat escape. Carbon nanotubes "tune" themselves according to the environment and adjust. We talk a bit about who should be using this technology and wonder if we could get our cars upholstered with it.
