Introduction
Mobile phones becoming a basic part of life, the recharging of mobile phone
batteries has always been a problem.

Scientists have developed a tiny chip that can generate power by using the
bodys own movement, a technology which they say could soon enable you to
recharge your mobile phone by just holding closer to your heart.

A team of researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology led by Dr. Zhong Lin Wang
have developed tiny nanogenerators that use small movements to generate enough
power.

Five nanogenerators working together produced about one micro ampere


output current at 3 volts about the same voltage generated by two regular AA
batteries.
CONDUCTING SYSTEM OF HEART
MAIN PRINCIPLE ON THIS TECHNOLOGY

. The key to the technology is zinc oxide (ZnO) nanowires. ZnO nanowires are
piezoelectric they can generate an electric current when strained or flexed.
That movement can be virtually any body movement, such as walking, a
heartbeat, or blood flowing through the body. The nanowires can also generate
electricity in response to wind, rolling tires, or many other kinds of movement
DESCRIPTION
Lead researcher Zhong Lin Wang from Georgia, said: This development
represents a milestone toward producing portable electronics that can be
powered by body movements without the use of batteries or electrical
outlets.

Scientists have figured out that "nanogenerators" powered by your


heartbeat could replace conventional batteries in about five years.

Additional nanowires and more nanogenerators, stacked together, could


produce enough energy for powering larger electronics, such as an iPod or
charging a cell phone.

Chemists may have discovered a way to charge small electronics, such as


iPods and cell phones, with your heartbeat.

HEART PULSE RATE FOR PRODUCING CURRENT

The researchers are also hoping to use their technology to scavenge energy from the
vibrations of bridges and roads. Paul Lee, the director of technology, media and
telecommunications at business consultants Deloitte Research, said: "There are two strands
of development in the mobile phone industry which are to either cram as many power hungry
applications into a phone as possible or to make a phone as efficient as -possible.
Advantages
Easy to charge.

power saving.

no need of external batteries.

less cost.

more efficient.

time consumption.
APPLICATIONS

In IPods and mobile phones.

In wrist watches.

In walky talky phones.


Conclusion

The plan to use the human heart to power these devices, including
iPods and mobile phones, eliminating batteries. This Technology
will soon be used to charge mobile. This technique by placing it
close to the heart and the mobile will be charge.
