Engineers from the University of Pennsylvania's School of Engineering and Applied Science are working to create a robot that can draw energy from metal.
This was a year filled with unbelievable electrical engineering innovations. In 2015, scientists pushed boundaries with new inventions that use exotic materials and, in some cases, even tested the laws of physics. We have compiled a list of the top ten inventions of 2015.
A company that is just one year old is about to unveil revolutionary technology that could replace batteries. K3OPS has developed a product that looks and acts like a regular battery, but is actually an energy ... Read More...
A 230 foot long section of a new solar commuter bike path is scheduled to officially open this week in the town of Krommenie, Netherlands. The path is made of pre-built concrete slabs embedded with solar ce... Read More...
A new method to generate electrical energy using mechanical vibrations has been developed by scientists at the VTT Technical Research Center in Finland. The scientists used the charging phenomenon that natu... Read More...
Researchers created an experimental generator that uses small electrode-coated flags that rub against a conducting counter plate to build a static charge. The flags used were less than five inches in length... Read More...
A team of Canadian researchers created a chin strap made from piezoelectric fiber composites (PFCs) that can generate electricity from jaw movements. When the strap is stretched by talking or chewing, an elect... Read More...
An empty lot in a small neighborhood of Rio de Janerio, Brazil was turned into a high-tech soccer field that uses 200 tiles that harness energy from players running across the field. The energy captured is us... Read More...
