US scientists harvest electrical energy from human movement
U.S. scientists have used inexpensive store-bought tape to craft a triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG), which is capable of harvesting electrical energy from various sources, including human movement and environmental conditions, to power small devices like wearable biosensors. Using triboelectric effect, TENGs convert mechanical energy, such as friction or movement, into electricity. Researchers from the University of … Read more
