New “smart” fabrics will allow you to wear your electronics

https://www.naturalnews.com/2019-02-22-new-smart-fabrics-will-allow-you-to-wear-your-electronics.html

February 22, 2019 - electronics normally require toxic solvents and are not suitable to be worn, whereas our inks are cheap, safe, and environmentally-friendly, and can be combined to create electronic circuits by simply printing different two-dimensional materials on the fabric,” said the paper's senior author, Dr. Felice Torrisi of the Cambridge Graphene Centre.

For his part, study co-author Professor Roman Sordan of Politecnico di Milano, said: “Digital textile printing has been ...

Skin sensor made from stretchable electronics could revolutionize stroke recovery

Researchers develop thin film that can turn heat from electronics into energy

https://www.naturalnews.com/2018-05-21-researchers-develop-thin-film-that-can-turn-heat-from-electronics-into-energy.html

May 21, 2018 -

It is said that almost 70 percent of all energy produced in the U.S. every year merely goes to waste in the form of excess heat. It just so happens that a lot of this waste heat, which mostly comes from things such as cars or computers, is less than 100 degrees Celsius. The new method developed by the researchers takes advantage of this, and manages to basically recycle the heat that would otherwise just go unused.

The method, which was crafted by a group of engineers from ...
