This game-changing new gel can convert motion into energy

Japanese scientists have created an electric gel that could revolutionize the future of electronics. The gel can be combined with highly flexible electrodes to create a wearable sensor that is capable of picking up low-frequency vibrations—like everyday human motion—and then converting them into energy. The gel was created by a team of researchers working at the National Institute of Materials Science , Meiji Pharmaceutical University, and Hokkaido University.

They hope that this will allow the new gel to join the various efforts of scientists around the world trying to create novel technologies that are flexible and environmentally sustainable. The researchers also say that the gel’s elastic storage modulus was found to be around 40 million times that of liquids similar to it. Further, it could be improved with a simplified fixation and a strong seal. The new electric gel is what scientists call an electret.
