Research shows how future smartwatches could be powered by body heat

A breakthrough from the Chinese Academy of Sciences shows how future smartwatches and wearables may be powered entirely by the user’s own skin. As detailed in the academic paper (via Science), the team of researchers at the Institute of Chemistry at CAS has developed a new, flexible thermoelectric material that converts waste body heat into [...] The post Research shows how future smartwatches could be powered by body heat appeared first on Wareable.
