EVERLASTING BATTERY

We all feel acrid and regretful when gadget's power pops off and we are left with no means to recharge it. Well, this news is sure to help our lip muscles stretch in smile!!

Researchers at RMIT University in Melbourne and Australian National University have made significant progress in the direction of making a perpetual power source. A group led by Arnan Mitchell, with assistance from Madhu Bhaskaran, Sharath Sriram and Simon Ruffel demonstrated how Piezoelectric film can generate electricity for wide range of portable electronics. Piezoelectric nanomaterials combined with thin-film technology can be integrated to power laptops through typing, using blood pressure to generate potential for the pacemakers, utilizing mechanical energy of finger taps to charge your touch-screen based gadgets.
Piezoelectic thin films to power gadgets in future
Well, there had been efforts in the past as well for developing technology that could recharge batteries using potential energy generated by body movements but this one sounds better and more efficient of all of them.
Also being eco-friendly it would be more consistent with our future life style. And most importantly the more we exploit the gadgets, the more battery back up we get!!!
