Eco Factor: Nanogenerator harvests kinetic energy to generate electricity.
Argentine Industrial designer Soledad Martin is trying to make renewable energy generation easy with a concept charger that harvests motion in any form to produce useful electrons.
The designer has come up with a generator that can be attached to your shoe, where it can harness the energy of motion, while you’re practicing any kind of sport or even walking your dog. Whenever your cellphone of PMP runs out of juice, you can simply remove the lid and attach the USB cable to power up the batteries right there on the street.
