DoCoMo Cellphone Harvests Kinetic Energy Generated by User Movements
1 January 2010 | Green Technology | No Comments
NTT DoCoMo, one of the largest mobile communication companies in Japan, plans to launch a new eco-friendly mobile phone (NTT DoCoMo Touch Wood), made of recyclable materials. This new cellphone will be powered by kinetic energy generated by user movements. Japanese company believes that by the year 2020, the market will be invaded by completely different cellphones. This new eco-cellphone will have attached a small flip-top screen and will be able to display an image in the air like a hologram.
What you can see in the picture above is actually a “universal cellphone”. It will be used as an ID, which will contain all our personal data. So, we will to take this gadget with us wherever we go. I think that recharging batteries won’t be a problem because the cellphone is powered by kinetic energy (when we walk, the battery is continuously recharged with the energy produced by our movements). Japanese manufacturers plan to install on this mobile phone a translation system in order to connect the user with everyone else, anytime, anywhere.
