The new development will allow smartphones to charge while scrolling

Researchers believe that soon the energy you can get from scrolling on the screen of the smartphone or touch to the smart watch. Scientists from the University of Pennsylvania claims to have developed a device that converts mechanical energy from the touch-screen smartphone into electricity using a new concept of energy harvesting.





The device is made of organic polymer and is lightweight and flexible. It contains two electrodes with ions that function as battery. When it is applied mechanical force, they create DC current, charging the main battery/

Therefore, you can charge the device by 40%. It can also be charged from the energy of wind or waves. This technology can be used, for example, and in biomedical devices.





Similar developments by other researchers. For example, the HandEnergy battery is charged when the user spins it around in his hand, and the Qualcomm battery for electric vehicles recharged directly during a trip. published
