Abstract
An electrically heatable article of apparel, in the form of a vest is equipped with a discrete and concealed control module which is provided with a finger actuating switch positioned for easy access by the fingers of a wearer person. The actuating switch transmits communication signals in the form of time retention presses on the finger actuation switch button to cause the programmed control circuit of the module to perform stored programmed functions. A haptic feedback device generates vibration communication signals to a wearer person's body by the sense of touch. The printed circuit board also acts as a vibration transmitting medium to the finger actuating switch to permit a user person to feel the vibration times of the retention presses through its finger. The control module is concealed in a discrete area of the vest providing easy access to the finger actuating.
