Next-gen contact lenses designed to be “wearable holograms”

In the near future, contact lens might become self-powered wearable tools that can diagnose your health based on your tears. That is because U.K. researchers have found a way to print nanostructure “holograms” on their surface that turns the lenses into “smart” electronics, an article from Nano Werks states. Human tears contain biomarkers that provide data […]

Researchers have developed a “highly stretchable rechargeable lithium ion battery” for the next generation of wearable electronics

The next generation of wearable electronic devices may carry one new innovation in tow: stretchable lithium-ion batteries. Currently, the typical wearable is powered by conventional types of batteries, meaning that devices usually have to be built around the battery itself. Batteries count as one of the major components of most electronic devices, so this really […]

Scientists create customizable power source for wearable electronics that can be folded, cut, and stretched without losing functionality

Wearable technology has certainly come a long way ever since they first hit the mainstream market a few years back. But even now, researchers from all over the world are working to reinvent it in ways that will give users more benefits at much lesser costs. The latest advancement in the world of wearables comes […]
