working
 A paper battery is a battery engineered
to use a paper-thin sheet of cellulose
(which is the major constituent of
regular paper, among other things)
infused with aligned carbon nano tubes..
 BENEFITS

 The use of carbon nano tubes gives the paper

battery extreme flexibility; the sheets can be
rolled, twisted, folded, or cut into numerous
shapes with no loss of integrity or efficiency,
or stacked, like printer paper to boost total
output. As well, they can be made in a variety
of sizes, from postage stamps to broadsheets.

 Pro’s
 Micro engines—measuring 3 by 3 by 10 mm
in size—offer 200 to 1000 times greater
energy density than conventional battery
technology.
 Micro engines can power unmanned mobile
sensors and imaging equipment including
reconnaissance micro air vehicles and land-
based robots .
