Hydrogel Paper Instantly Generates 110 Volts of Electricity 

Work integrate superconductive graphene into this and see where it goes.

Wasn't expecting the ending. What a plot twist.

Not sure what it is, but her voice screams "I'm reading a script, and I don't know what i'm talking about".

"Which can operate inside the human body." My brain went superpowers....

Excellent. Keep going, young human; you're not quite there yet!

Honestly, the current may be nothing to speak of at the moment, but an electric eel is NOTHING to sneer at; they can easily kill an adult. They've been recorded at 600v+ and several amps. So, the eel proves that in something the size/volume of a grown man's arm, you could produce a bioelectric device capable of powering quite a bit. Think about this also: the eel at ~1-1.5m long and 10cm diameter only has the electricity-producing cells in a thin layer under the skin (the other 90%+ of the volume of the animal being regular tissue). If you created something with the same power AND energy density of that layer, but it was the size/mass of a Li-Ion battery pack, the Li-Ion would be put to shame.

Oh that's pretty cool, "operate inside the human body" -_- wat?

You can also generate electricity by eating ramen noodles in a bathtub with the pan submerged. The noodle is noticeably sour due to electricity.

When I heard “generates electricity”, I thought it would be a power generator, not this type of toy.

I have been waiting for this so long. I have been thinking of making a suit that has integrated tazer and a phone running android that i can use from the wrist.

Great. What's the amperage and for how long is it produced?

what is the source of energy that it conversation to electricity? and what is the efficiently?

I'm not putting cybernetics on or in myself. Take it or leave it.

volt is not measure of power. watt is.

"Batteryless Battery"???? a. Small aluminum cones with an electrical wire running through the center of the cones, cones spaced apart (not touching I'm thinking) but end to end. b. Electromagnetic radiation energy in the atmosphere interacts with the aluminum cones. c. Jostled atoms and molecules in the cone eventually have some electrons try to get away from other electrons of which those electrons gather at the larger end of the cone, of which also creates an area of positive charge at the smaller end of the cone. d. The electron's in the wire are attracted to the positive end of the cone and the positive 'end' in the wire are attracted to the negatively charged end of the cone. e. Basically a 'battery' has been created inside the electrical wire itself, different areas of electrical potential. Basically a 'wire battery' or a 'batteryless battery', however one wanted to call it. f. Numerous cones placed end to end increases the number of 'batteries' in the wire. Then of course, one could take that generated dc electricity to split H2O into H2 and O2 of which could be burned or utilized in a hydrogen fuel cell to get the electricity back with a byproduct of basically pure water. Species need pure water too. With the increased cosmic radiation that is going to be impacting this Earth this century as well as possibly a mini-ice age, might as well put that cosmic radiation to work for us.

Honestly...I just wanted to feel gels on the sheet because that would feel nice to touch

Ok so what is the current currently ;)) And how long it last? It has capacity or it is rechargable?

So this is static shocks origin story ?

Please don't put me back in the matrix, i don't want to be battery again

I'm curious how many of the commenters made it through high school.

Operates inside the body, means self induced hear attack!

I always wanted to shock my self for no reason on demand. Without needing to look for an outlet.

So just a battery like the good old alkaline batteries. Interesting, but what exactly are the benefits they are hoping to get?

Wait! What was that last sentence? We are going to become electric eel people?

Integrating this inside the human body might make procreation a little tricky.

We need 220,...110 is only for the US market.

Still generates more energy than solar roadways.

The last words were haunting, "inside the human body", I wonder how Goku fans feel about this

It's the actual muscle of the eel that generates electricity

could you let me know which machines are used for this paper fabrication?

So, the key point here is they can create cells to generate electrical energy *from inside the human body* but to make the news a little bit appealing in this poor society of people unable to hold attention more than a second they had to push a "feature" (high voltage) that isn't a feature at all for these cells, just for the sake of grabbing a bit of audience, despite the research is interesting per se and may have much more interesting (untold) characteristics, but hey, too nerdy to be appealing for this circus. EDIT: Here a better explanation of the potential use of these kind of batteries: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-3BZFyT-VC-I.html

mutation ... so you get electric punch XD

Hi, Can I use some of this video to create an educational video for my channel?

But I already shock people when ever I touch them but I shock myself when I touch metal

i feel like they kinda trailed off at the end, but did they say "replicate" this IN the human body?like black lightning? :)

this is amazing. i want to buy this gel

And where is this working finished example?

the colors looks amazing lol

so i guess you could use this stuff in a generator and it might be more efficient than the generators we use today.

Ok so exactly why do we want an electrical system inside our bodies??????

Our heart beat also uses these ions Na and K and moves them from outside cell inside and back.

how far are we from making the classic spider man villain "electro"?

perhaps Monsanto can add a gene to their "corn" (?)

I feel there's an electricity between us. No, really, I do.

But imagine if you get electrocuted by those electric papers just like the eli wich could electrocute his enemy’s, hahaha lol.

is it April 1st already?... sounds like a hoax rather than revolutionary life changing technology, i love the 21st century 😊

How do you think an eel feels when it uses that organ? Does it feel like flexing a muscle or something completely different?

This will slowly put batteries to obsolete.

Very cool!

110 is nothing, and how many watts?

Are we going to be able to make force lightning with that?

Are you ready to be a Ghost in the Shell!

This 110v is that at 10 amps or 0.1 amp. Is like licking a battery or peeing on an electrified fence.

110 volts is nothing if it can't produce current. How much current can it produce before voltage drop?

Amazing nature tech

So i can become a Pikachu?

An electrical system that can operate inside as human body ??? For what purpose ?????

So it just continually emits the voltage or does it run out?

why would you want to generate 110 volts in the human body?

Please increase the sound

Hmm interesting reaction diffusion process, However not very usable as it is now by means of non conformic closed loop in another way relaxation damping. Albeit the origami solution is marvelous as a type of folding cell structure.

so it didnt work

Thunderf00t are you here?

Why do humans need this in there body? Pacemakers and stuff like that?

so we get to be Michael Vey?

scientist always have big hopes that's how they get the research money

What is this called?

we already produce electricity inside our bodies, we just need to enhance it so I can become black lightning :P

Many kind talking like this but none on mass production already..

Cool basically a bio 🔋 battery the next in cellphone tech but does this mean I will have to feed my cell fish food

Sure stacking 200 lemons also generates 110 volts instantly. More IEEE bullshit

Not enough detail for my liking

Very Smart.

-looks like candy-

no electric bills?

I was super okay with this Until i heard inside the human body For what? More advanced prosthetics?

Anybody know the update to this

i can get this same worthless power by pulling 2 fabric softeners apart. its called static ya geniuses.

Nice.

Want to see electricity from something similar that you can buy at the grocery store? Breathe right extra clear nasal strips, peel one quickly in a dark room and the faster you peel, the brighter the electrical light that emits between the two sticky tabs. Makes me paranoid because I'm not sure if any of that is uv light too.

Interesting.

I would look at mitochondria.

Electric potential*

How ate they recharged?

what?

Dude !

Sorry guys but this isn't 3D printing. Just a different form of 2D printing

utter BS even if it works...so what? how will it benefit anyone?

cool

If this is scalable, it could be used to store electricity from renewables.

But generates no current

But why would you want an "electrical system INSIDE the human body" ?? They keep playing with things that they do NOT fully understand. They still haven't figured out the mind-boggling complexity of the human body, and they want to introduce some artificial electrical generator INTO it?! Same with GMO and nuclear radiation. This tinkering at the smallest level (tinkering with genes and molecules INSIDE the human body) is like a toddler playing with matches with a lot of flammable material around him (but he's too inexperienced to know what flammable material is, and how quickly fire can avalanche). W'eve had the technology to solve all of humanity's problems since the 1960's, BUT THE GREED OF THE ELITE HAVE ALWAYS STOOD IN ITS WAY. New technology since then has mostly just been gimmicks to artificially boost sales in the face of the declining purchasing power of the majority. PEOPLE ARE SO EASILY CONNED BY ADVERTISING AND FLASHY NEW GIMMICKS.

LOL! Inside the human body? Scientist want to make super heroes. We always knew what their true motives always were, no wonder the Billion dollar grant to the American Science foundation.

Interesting, the only question I have is why would you even consider putting an electrical system inside a human. I got an idea, go swallow a had full of button batteries. That should give you a pretty good idea of how practical an electrical system would be in the human body.

Awesome! All that potential for having annoying commercials right inside your body. Example: Intimate with wife and ad for Hillary Clinton Equivalent gets spammed inside my brain...Well, glad I'm not in the generation that has to deal with that technology.

not easy try to copy nature, but, several say, nature created by big bang. what the ... !

sodiumchlorid? dont u mean NATRIUMCHLORID?! ffs get your things right!

Because we definitely need to be walking utility poles that can electrocute ourselves. I just keep a spare battery for my phone. Such backwards thinking.
