Possible Solution for Powering Implantable Devices
By john | July 23, 2007
Interesting story here about “nanogenerators” that could draw power from human blood to power implantable devices. A technology like this will be key if we’re ever able to implant technology into the human body. We need a method to power these devices, preferably thorough biological means such as this. Having to remove a device to recharge it, or even having a power interface sticking out of your body to do the recharging, probably won’t be acceptable.
