Pangolin-inspired scale tiles that automatically regulate temperature—cutting HVAC costs by 60% while eliminating hot and cold spots.
You cross your kitchen floor at 2am and feel perfectly warm—while your bedroom pillow has already cooled to your ideal sleep temperature. All without the AC ever turning on. The living room wall scales subtly shifted while you slept, storing cool night air to release tomorrow afternoon.
This is biomimicry borrowed from the pangolin—the only mammal with protective scales that regulate body temperature through controlled blood flow.
