Many kinds of alternative energy sources developed to meet human needs for energy, ranging from solar energy, wind, sea waves, until the organic fuel. there is a new discovery is very exciting technology that uses electrical power of the human body to supply power of gadgets.
with nano technology, scientists have succeeded in charging the batteries using electricity from heart pulse and body movements.
At the conference the National Meeting and Exposition of the American Chemical Society, a team of scientists has successfully developed a very small nano-chip, a team of scientists has successfully developed a very small nano-chip, to be pinned on human limbs. then capture the electrical energy that flows and channel them to charge the battery
Dr. Zhong Lin Wang from Georgia Isntitute of Technology, USA, who led the development of this chip, said he and his team power a LCD screen by using this technology
“The development of this technology is a milestone towards the production of portable electronic goods that can be activated by body movements,” he said.
zinc oxide nano wires grown in our body will produce electricity when tense or bent. That is, almost all the gestures, ranging from walking until your heart rate can generate electricity that can be recovered
Dr Wang and his team attempt to capture and combine the energies of millions of nanowires are in super small size. So small, 500 nanowires can fit in a human hair.
Five nano generator mounted together to produce an electric current to premises r 1 micro ampere at voltage 3 volts. This is equivalent to the voltage generated by two AA batteries.
“Some of volts does not seem much, but this is more advanced than the development of nano generator ever developed before,” said Wang.
He mentioned, cables and more nano generator can produce enough power to turn the small electronic devices such as mobile phones and other gadgets. further development of nano technology will provide convenience for the user and energy saving fuel.
