Future of wearable devices empowered by new stretchable battery

Posted on by Haptic

Wearable devices have garnered attention for their potential as sensors that could monitor various biomarkers, a means of drug delivery, medical devices and more. In order for these wearable devices to be functional and practical, they need to have batteries that are stretchable and highly deformable. While there has been research on how to improve Read more about Future of wearable devices empowered by new stretchable battery[…]

Flexible Micro-supercapacitors based on graphene could spur the development of wearable electronics

Posted on by Haptic

A future of soft robots that wash your dishes or smart T-shirts that power your cell phone may depend on the development of stretchy power sources. But traditional batteries are thick and rigid — not ideal properties for materials that would be used in tiny malleable devices. In a step toward wearable electronics, a team Read more about Flexible Micro-supercapacitors based on graphene could spur the development of wearable electronics[…]
