As our demand for power intensifies with our need for better consumer electronics, companies such as Brother Industries Ltd need to develop a new power source that will last much longer. That’s where new vibration-powered generators come in – they look like normal batteries, all you need to do is shake them to charge. The faux-batteries are from Brother Industries, and inside the AA and AAA-sized shells you’ll find a capacitor and an electromagnetic induction generator. Shaking them will charge the capacitor enough to juice low-power gadgets. The example given is remote control, which needs around 40 to 100mW of power. The battery can put out up to 180mW, so while you won’t be using these to power a camera-flash, a quick shake to get the TV remote going again would work just great. In fact, you could just build this in to a remote and forget the batteries altogether. Preserving of environment is quite important nowadays and we have seen many gadgets that can help us with that. We already know that disposable batteries are a bad solution because they can be toxic for the environment. With these new rechargeable batteries, they may help us preserve the environment whilst at the same time creating power.
