Yato - Extreme Conditions & Casualty Care Technology
Maintaining thermal comfort in hostile, difficult or remote locations can be a challenge. Deciding which
equipment to take or leave behind can often impact mission success. With Yato Technology from Unleashed
Tactical Equipment the decision may just have got easier.
Yato Technology was developed to provide thermal management in clothing, tents and other military and law enforcment
products. It does this through the use of innovative materials that reflect high levels of thermal energy while at the same
time emitting very little thermal radiation.
The Yato Effect
In simple terms the Yato Effect reduces the amount of energy we lose or gain from the environment or atmosphere. In shortit slows our heating up or cooling down depending on the where and how we use it.
For example, the graph to the right displays the Yato Effect in a micro
observation tent over a relatively short period of time. Two tents were
prepared with data logging equipment and allowed to stabilise in the
outdoors at an ambient temperature of -4°C. Observers manned the tents
and air temperatures inside the tents were measured and logged.
The black line shows the air temperature in the tent without Yato
Technology. The red line shows the air temperature within the tent equipped
with Yato Technology. Not only was the initial temperature drop less severe
with the Yato fitted tent, the temperature remained significantly higher for the
duration of the test. Further testing verified that in extreme conditions, Yato
Technology significantly and positively affected the user experience.
Yato Technology does the same trick in hot environments. Traditional tents and shelters absorb high thermal loads in
desert environments. With Yato Technology thermal radiation is reflected away from the surface of the technology and any
conducted heat is not emitted into the shelter
Heat In, Heat Out...Plus
Yato Technology has another trick up it’s sleeve. The properties of the material are extremely resistant to microbial
growth. Meaning that the effects of smells, germs and bacteria, often the cause of discomfort and sickness in long
term, static, observation posts are greatly reduced.
It doesn’t stop there. The nature of the material does not allow static to build up that could
affect sensitive equipment or to be the possible source of ignition sparks. In
addition Yato can be configured to provide isolation between RF
dependant equipment even in very close proximity.
Yato is the smart material for hostile locations
