2 min read
University of Wollongong researchers published a paper in Science Advances describing a life jacket that generates electricity from wave motion. Linking 40 devices produced about two volts, enough to light small LEDs, while a prototype illuminated an SOS display in seawater. The team plans to increase power and reliability for real-world use.
