Convert Body Heat into Reliable Energy for Powering Ultra Low-Power Mobile Devices
Harvesting Body Heat with ‘Wearable’ Thermoelectrics
• The human body is a perpetual thermal engine.
• Wearable thin-film thermoelectric generators (TEGs) can reliably convert this heat energy to power wireless monitoring devices.
• Integrated into apparel to power devices that monitor movement, activity, or physiological condition.
