Solid-state cooling tech will transform wearables and XR glasses, and I got an early look

XMC-2400 is an all-silicon cooling solution, xMC-2400 is an all-silicon cooling solution showcased at MWC 2026.

Produces airflow equivalent to a traditional fan at 35 cc/s xMEMS reported the XMC-2400 produces airflow comparable to a traditional fan at 35 cubic centimeters per second.

Is 1 mm thick and consumes 30 mW of power the XMC-2400 measures 1 mm in thickness and requires 30 mW of power.

Has IP58 dust and water resistance the XMC-2400 carries an IP58 dust and water resistance rating.

XMEMS demo fitted the XMC-2400 to a 3D-printed smart glasses prototype drawing 1 W, in a demo xMEMS attached the XMC-2400 to one side of 3D-printed smart glasses drawing 1 W.
