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. [...]
Wearable Power – battery made from from algae cellulose
Soft, flexible, wearable power is the stuff many scientist are working on, not only for the wearable electronic community as many other applications like to use bendable, sustainable, power providing sources for our devices on the go. A group of [...]
Sticky, Itchy, and Stiff fashion generate wearable power
Generating alternative power on-the-go to keep up with the increasingly sophisticated but insanely power hungry electronic gadgets in our pockets much research and development resources have been devoted to this topic. A highly interesting approach to wearable, on-the-go power generation [...]
