A jacket that harvests drinking water from the air

Assuming it's an "all-weather" jacket I think it would be cool for it to spout out umbrellas when it starts raining, batman style, to catch rain water as well and drop it into pouches. Mp3 player would be great as well.

I've heard of collecting water with tarps and assume this is like a vest form of that:

This reminds me of Dune. Does this really work tho?

Incredible innovation.

Wouldn't want to be drinking whatever this produces in the GTA though lol

Nearly all passive water-from-air devices described in articles are based on false claims. Peltier-based, desiccant/absorption/adsorption based, etc. All end up not working, or not existing. This has been common for ~10 years.

Which category does this fall into?:

  - Fraud
  - Incompetence / misunderstanding that wasn't cleared up prior to publishing an article
  - Neither; this works as expected

Makes sense since we're speedrunning the other parts of the Butlerian jihad

depending on actual conditions you are in, it could potentially double (or more) the time before you die of thirst if it was your only source of water.

My first thought was “yay a stillsuit” - but this grabs moisture from the air, not the wearer’s body. So no. No stillsuit yet.

I wonder if it has microplastics, but probably depends what kind of fabric was used

works in the rain

Vaporware has never tasted so good or been so refreshing.

This sort of thing can't work as it would break basic laws of thermodynamics. Best case it's a dehumidifier with extra steps.
