Popis: Wearable electronics are gaining commercial relevance nowadays. Applications like smartwatches and personal fitness trackers are already commercially available. Unfortunately, the operating time of most current devices is limited by small battery capacities. Many devices require to be charged every day. Human bodies can generate egnough power to operate electronic devices practically indefinitely. The challenge is to harvest this power and to use it as efficient as possible.
