The accelerating change of technology we use commercially and personally is dramatically increasing the global demand for electric power. As consumers, we’re gulping power at an alarming rat... Read more
UAV’s, or Unmanned Aerial Vehicles, tend to face two issues – not being able to stay on station for long periods, and carrying enough of a payload to be useful. Nevada outfit Airship Manufac... Read more
Compared to today’s electric vehicle chargers, they have managed to shorten the charging time from eight to two hours, and to reduce the cost by around $2,000 Researchers at Chalmers h... Read more
The technology “offers nearly miraculous potential.” When a current passes between two electrodes — one thinner than the other — it creates a wind in the air between. If enough voltage is ap... Read more
We absorb the heat from your body, and that heat is funneled through a thermoelectric generator that converts it into electric power. Never run out of batteries again. With this new tech cal... Read more
