Smart clothing a step closer thanks to nanogenerator advances
A team of researchers from Loughborough University’s Wolfson School of Mechanical, Electrical and Manufacturing Engineering has used 3D printing to develop a new nanogenerator technology that could be used to create affordable ‘smart clothing’ that could be used for health monitoring. The new triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) design can be customised using different liquids to efficiently…
