Power on the move: New silk thread tech turns clothes into electricity generators | This flexible, lightweight, and non-toxic material makes it ideal for wearable applications.
By converting temperature differences into electrical energy, these textiles can power a range of wearable devices, from fitness trackers to medical sensors.
When combined with sensors, this technology can benefit us in numerous ways, from powering wearable devices to monitoring vital signs. “We have now shown that it is possible to produce conductive organic materials that can meet the functions and properties that these textiles require,” said Christian Müller, the lead researcher from the university, in the press release. By converting temperature differences into electrical energy, these textiles can power a range of wearable devices, from fitness trackers to medical sensors.
