Mobile Devices Get Powered

Scientists from the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems are exploring new methods of harvesting energy to power mobile devices -- including light (solar power), heat, and motion.

Prominent clock makers use this technology to power watches. Micro-integrated thermo-electric converters can also be used to cool electronic components
