Incredible Technology Promises to Transform Your Whole Body Into a Wireless Charger: User Just Needs to Charge One Device, and The Rest of The Devices Being Used Can Be Simultaneously Powered

Researchers from the National University of Singapore (NUS) have developed a technology that allows a single device, such as a mobile phone placed in a pocket, to wirelessly energize other wearable devices on a user’s body, using the human body as a medium for power transmission, effectively turning it into a wireless charger.

The new system allows a single energy source, which is fully charged, to power up to 10 wearable devices on the body for a duration of over 10 hours. It can also harvest unused energy from typical household or office electronics to power the wearables.

Technology Has The Potential To Eliminate The Need For Batteries

“Batteries are among the most expensive components in wearable devices, and they add bulk to the design. Our unique system has the potential to eliminate the need for batteries, thereby allowing manufacturers to miniaturize devices and significantly reduce production costs,” said Jerald Yoo, Associate Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at NUS.

Technology Transforms The Body Into A Wireless Charger

The NUS team designed a receiver and transmitter system that uses the very obstacle to wireless powering—the human body—as a medium for energy transmission and harvesting. Each receiver and transmitter contains a chip, which serves as a springboard to extend coverage across the entire body.

A user just needs to place the transmitter on a single power source, such as the smartwatch on the user’s wrist, while multiple receivers can be placed anywhere on the person’s body. The system then harnesses the energy from the source to power several wearables on the user’s body through a process called body-coupled energy transmission.

In this way, the user only needs to charge one device, and the rest of the devices being used can be simultaneously powered from that single source.

I would love to hear what you think about the idea of turning your body into a walking wireless charger! Let us know in the comments section. Don’t forget to leave 5 stars and turn on CPG notifications to keep up with all the news in the tech world. See you next time!

Apenas não ficou claro como esta energia seria gerada. Movimento? Calor corporal? Até mais…

Technology Transforms The Body Into A Wireless Charger

The Soviet Union spent 22 years drilling into the Earth’s crust and reached a depth of 12,262 meters — they found water where it was thought impossible, hydrogen bubbling from the rock, granite that is 2.7 billion years old, and temperatures of 180 degrees that melted the drill bits.

Norway is drilling 27 kilometers of rock 392 meters below the bottom of a fjord to build the world’s largest and deepest underwater road tunnel — when completed, a 21-hour journey will be reduced to 10.

The island that has 35 inhabitants and celebrates Christmas on January 6: the remote island of Foula lives in isolation, without internet and following Julius Caesar’s calendar for centuries.

A German architect built a cylindrical house in 1994 that rotates to follow the sun throughout the day, generates 5 times more energy than it consumes, and was the world’s first energy-positive house.

After 14 years of construction and a diplomatic crisis that nearly led to a military confrontation over control of the Nile, Ethiopia inaugurated the largest hydroelectric power plant in Africa — the dam is 170 meters high, holds 74 billion cubic meters of water, and generates 5,150 megawatts.

China has just successfully tested the world’s first ground effect maritime vehicle, a craft that flies up to 6 meters above the water at 200 km/h, uses quantum technology and 6G communication, and can rescue patients in the middle of the ocean.

Gardener found R$ 235,000 in buried gold bars while cutting grass in Germany but won’t get to keep any of it because the city seized the treasure and has already decided what to do with it.

A 2-meter marble statue of Athena was found almost intact in an ancient theater in Turkey, but the head has not yet been found.

A Chinese phone with a 200 MP camera, a 7,000 mAh battery, and a chip that has already shocked in performance tests is coming to destroy everything Samsung and Apple offer in the premium market.

Neanderthals may have developed speech hundreds of thousands of years ago, and the proof lies in a study of DNA segments called HAQERs that influence linguistic abilities 200 times more than any other region of the human genome.

A city is building low-cost houses for people experiencing homelessness, with community support, assembled in a few hours, costing $2,500, and with a simple structure to protect from the cold and rain.
