Elastic fabric turns body movements into electricity

The fabric created at Nanyang Technological University is an energy harvesting device.

The authors of the work say that a 3-by-4 cm piece of the new fabric generates enough energy to light up 100 LEDs. Washing, folding, and squeezing the fabric had no effect on the device's performance.
