According to researchers, advances in nanomaterial fabrication are leading to development of tiny thermoelectric modules that could be used in various applications, including integrating nanoscale cooling devices within the uniforms of firefighters, emergency workers, and military personnel; embedding thermoelectric modules in facades of a building; and using thermoelectric modules to recover waste heat in automobiles. Research two applications for this technology proposed within the past five years. Investigate the technical readiness and economic feasibility for each concept. Report your findings in an executive summary and a PowerPoint presentation with at least three references.
