Graphene OPV – wearable sun-power within reach?
Professor Chongwu Zhou and his team of researcher at the University of Southern California produced flexible transparent carbon atom films that have great potential for a new breed of solar cells suitable to be integrated into garments. Graphene OPV (organic [...]
Power walking
Innovators keep on searching restlessly for ways to use the huge amount of energy we are generating while going after our daily business. Especially while walking a great amount of energy is generated with each step we take, a fascinating [...]
Wearable power uniform for soldiers
News about wearable power become a regular weekly topic on talk2myshirt as we have again found information of a new development in this field. Britain’s Ministry of Defense awarded a research grant to Intelligent Textiles Limited, a British company specializing [...]
Fiber Nanogenerators power up our future clothing
On a fairly regular basis researchers publish new findings around power generating textiles, a topic highly interesting for the wearable electronic community. This time engineers at the University of California, Berkeley, created energy generating nanofibers that could one day be [...]
Wafer-thin plastic stores electricity
A recently published scientific development from researcher at the Imperial College London looks like another stepping stone towards wearable power. The scientists created a super-capacitor in a flexible form by sandwiching a glass-fiber layer between two layers of carbon fibers [...]
Conductive Energy Textiles
Scientists at Stanford University, CA join the race for wearable power by developing ink from single-walled carbon nanotubes. According to the scientists, everyday textiles like Cotton or Polyester fabrics can be electrified with an extremely simple “dipping and drying” process [...]
Wearable power – Dancepants
Wearable, limitless power for ‘on the go’ personal deceives is the dream of many. Batteries usually run out at just the wrong moment, in the middle of a phone call, while tweeting or when the motivational music is most needed. [...]
