Piezoelectric Materials Will Power Future Nanoscale Devices

One of the most daring dreams that scientists have is to create a world that is completely self-sustaining, and which is not reliant on exterior sources of power for it to operate. This means that everything requiring electricity will have to reach a high-level of conservation abilities, and also that new and radical...

Vibrations, Not so Bad For Helicopters After All!

"When energy goes good..." Even though it doesn't sound right, that's exactly what Mid Technology has succeeded in doing, converting pesky helicopter vibrations into electrical energy to track its rotor and make dynamic balance adjustments while in midflight, a procedure which usually takes place only on the...

Meet the Mighty Rain Harvester!

Oh no... it's starting again! I mean I like all these energy converting devices that try to harness the full potential power resulted during a natural physical process, but what's enough is enough. I know the universe is all about energy and all the different ways it is converted, but all the trouble one ha...
