La membrane d’intestin est un matériau supérieur au plastique, puisque tout en étant imperméable, elle permet d’évacuer la transpiration. Les manteaux en membrane d’intestin de baleine ou de phoque étaient prisés lors des expéditions de chasse aux animaux marins, exécutées en kayak. Parfaitement étanches, avec des systèmes de fermeture aux poignets et autour du visage, ils assuraient confort et liberté de mouvement aux chasseurs et servaient de coupe-vent. 4, record 1, French, - membrane%20d%27intestin

Les crises successives de l'énergie et les perspectives de l'avenir ont profondément modifié la philosophie et la technologie de tout ce qui touche au traitement de l'air. En effet, mettre en mouvement un fluide gazeux pour le distribuer constitue une consommation importante d’énergie et il convient donc maintenant d’ajuster ou de contrôler au mieux cette distribution pour ne consommer que ce qui est nécessaire, c'est-à-dire nos besoins pour le confort, sans plus. Pour ce faire, les ventilateurs traditionnels, utilisés dans le bâtiment, ont subi quelques modifications ou ont été aménagés pour être plus «intelligents». Leur technologie est telle qu'ils peuvent voir leur débit ajusté en fonction des besoins en conservant un bon rendement. 1, record 6, French, - ventilateur%20intelligent
