Eel-Inspired Three Dimensional (3D)-Printed Hydrogel Instantly Generates Electricity

Inspired by the electric eel, researchers from the University of Fribourg in Switzerland have developed 3D-printed hydrogels that could generate up to 110 volts of electricity in an instant. The rows of gels contain positively and negatively charged ions that combine together to mimic the eel”s cellular structure. Unlike typical batteries, these systems are soft,

Novel Circuit Design Boosts Wearable Thermoelectric Generators

Using flexible conducting polymers and novel circuitry patterns printed on paper, researchers have demonstrated proof-of-concept wearable thermoelectric generators that can harvest energy from body heat to power simple biosensors for measuring heart rate, respiration or other factors. Because of their symmetrical fractal wiring patterns, the devices can be cut to the size needed to provide
