Piezoelectric

The pizzicato knee-joint energy harvester is an experimental wearable device, that generates electricity via the bending of the wearer's knees as they walk.

Researchers at KAIST have developed a low-cost, large-area piezoelectric nanogenerator.

Scientists have used computer models to demonstrate how piezoelectric graphene could be created.

Researchers at the University of Michigan College of Engineering have developed technology that harvests an insects biological energy that could be used to power small sensors implanted on their bodies.

MIT researchers are reporting the development of a new piezoelectric device that is about the size of a U.S. quarter and can generate 100 times as much power as similarly sized devices.

A new in-shoe device is designed to harvest the energy that is created by walking, and store it for use in mobile electronic devices.

Scientists from the Georgia Institute of Technology are claiming to have created the world's first practical nanogenerator.

A student-designed ultrasonic system is theoretically able to transmit data and power through submarine hulls.

This Monday, IBM announced its fifth annual "Next Five in Five" – a list of five technologies that the company believes “have the potential to change the way people work, live and play over the next five years.”

A new device made out of piezoelectric material by researchers at Louisiana Tech University could allow a wide range of electronic devices to harvest their own wasted operational energy.

Scientists from Korea have used a main ingredient of calamine lotion to convert sound waves into electricity with the hope that ultimately the technology may be able to convert ambient noise to power a mobile phone.

Murata has created the world's first waterproof, ultra-thin piezoelectric speaker for installation into mobile devices
