Mobile Power Supply Solution With Legs :: Symblogogy
What is the essence of mobility (enterprise mobility) … is it not movement, the ability to move anywhere, anytime and be able to remain connected to the aid and information provided through technology?
What if one were able to recharge the tools that provide power to the devices we carry to remain connected to our information age? Well, here is an invention that never requires a person to ever be near a traditional power source in order to recharge the batteries of the devices we use to keep connected as we move about.
Engineers from three universities in Canada and the US have successfully developed a generator that is able to harvest and convert the energy we produce from walking into electricity. The generator is embedded in a brace that is worn above and below the knee to capture the motion power that walking creates in order to turn the mechanical energy of human muscles into electrical energy.
Out and about and completely tether free with the ability to power PDA’s, Cellphones, and all other enterprise mobility devices.

Technology is advancing at an extremely fast pace. It will be interesting to see how far this goes and how robots will collaborate in the effort.
