Microgenerators Can Run Electronics, Outlive Batteries
Such microgenerators, each the thickness of a dime, contain tiny spinning magnets that serve as their energy source -- a technology called a microelectromechanical system, or MEMS. The faster the magnets spin, the more energy they produce.
GIT hopes that its next generation of microgenerators will be powerful enough to power laptops, radios and GPS devices.
