Now, charge your mobile with a fabric wrapped around your wrist
Scientists at the Sungkyunkwan University, South Korea have created a double-layered fabric out of silver-coated woven textile that can charge the battery of a mobile phone.

The new fabric relies on the triboelectric effect, which occurs with certain materials become electrically charged after coming into fricative contact with a different material.

Electrons are transferred from one material to the other, causing one material to build up a positive charge, while the other gets a negative charge.
In a demonstration, researchers attached the generator on a jacket sleeve and embedded six LEDs, a small liquid-crystal display and a keyless car remote control in the jacket.
