Scientists Create Stretchy Rubber That Converts Body Heat Into Electricity for Wearables
Scientists at Peking University have developed a stretchable elastomer that converts body heat into electricity, detailed in Nature. The breakthrough uses thermoelectricity to power wearable and implantable devices without batteries. Enhanced with a doping agent for higher conductivity, the material combines flexibility with efficiency, marking a l...

Neuralink Device Helps Monkey See Something That’s Not There
Neuralink's "Blindsight" brain implant is said to have enabled a monkey to perceive non-existent objects, a step toward aiding the blind. Engineer Joseph O'Doherty stated the device stimulated visual brain areas, prompting eye movements towards "visualised" targets two-thirds of the time. Neuralink's first public data on Blindsight, a chip mimickin...
