A model gadget constructed by scientist from the Queen Mary University of London (QMUL) in collaboration with Nokia produces sufficient energy in order to charge a mobile phone simply by being exposed to sounds such as unwanted music and traffic noise.
The gadget, about the measurement of Nokia Lumia phone, is composed of energy-harvesting nano-generators that has the ability to convert vibrations produced by sound waves into electricity.
The group formerly shown that a similar idea can enhance the efficiency of solar cells, increasing their energy by playing noisy music. The present development guarantees that mobile phone consumers would never run out of battery or be pressured to find a socket to plug in their their gadget.
"Being able to keep mobile devices working for longer, or do away with batteries completely by tapping into the stray energy that is all around us is an exciting concept,” stated Joe and Materials Science, who developed the idea with his coworker Steve Dunn.
