The team was inspired by self-winding watches , which have existed since the late 18th century and transform wrist movement into energy. The team is in talks with the Tilburg, Netherlands–based company Kinetron to make a microgenerator designed specifically for animals, rather than self-winding wristwatches, Gregersen says.

350 to 700 bar) storage vessels are constructed using expensive high-strength carbon fiber, such as Toray T700S, in a composite matrix as an overwrap to contain the stress. An example of a possible solution is using fibers with mechanical strengths matching or exceeding the properties of aerospace quality carbon fiber (e.g.

Nicknamed “fuzzy fiber” by its inventor at UDRI, Nano Adaptive Hybrid Fabric (NAHF-XTM) is the first tailored nanomaterial capable of being produced in sizes and quantities large enough to make them affordable and viable for large-scale commercial use. But in doing so, electrical and thermal conductivity inherent to metals is lost.

Their outer skin is made from aluminum-coated polymer and this in turn brings weight advantages. Alternatively they can serve as buffers for renewables such as wind and solar power—whether as part of the grid or as home installations. Because the exhaust system transports only water, it can be made of lightweight polymer.
