Researchers at Georgia Institute of Technology have made a fabric that can simultaneously harvest energy from sunshine and motion. Professor Zhong Lin Wang and team used a commercial machine to weave together polymer solar cell fibres and with fibre-based triboelectric generators. Triboelectric generators use a combination of the triboelectric effect and electrostatic induction to generate small ...
