A unique new flexible and stretchable device, worn
against the skin and capable of producing electrical energy by
transforming the compounds present in sweat, was recently developed
and patented by CNRS researchers from l”Université Grenoble Alpes
and the University of San Diego (U.S.). This cell is already
capable of continuously lighting an LED, opening new avenues for
the development of wearable electronics powered by autonomous and
environmentally friendly biodevices. This research was published in
Advanced Functional Materials on September 25, 2019.
