The conceptual 'WIM' smart heating pad has been designed by Sofia Papenova and Lidia Grits as a solution for women that can help with menstrual cramps for on-demand relief from anywhere. The wearable solution maintains a compact design that can be positioned onto the belly or back and kept in place when going about one's daily routine. The heating pad is composed of the control center, the heating patch and a charger that all maintain a compact design to be easily carried when traveling or stowed between uses.
The conceptual 'WIM' smart heating pad features a series of dedicated buttons on the control center for changing the temperature to accommodate needs throughout the day. The skin-friendly hydroelectric adhesive helps maintain a comfortable contact with the skin anywhere on the body.
