A SHIRT THAT CHARGES YOUR MOBILE

US SCIENTISTS FROM GEORGIA institute of technology are into a confound research and they aredeveloping a shirt or a jacket made of nano-fabric,which produces electricity.The nano-fabric generates electricity due to movement and friction,which is enough to charge your mobile.This nano fabric clothing can also be used to power an electronic device.It uses self-winding principle,and it contains nano generators that can convert all types of friction such as vibrations,sound waves,even our breath(i.e heartbeat) into electricity.

Main principle is termed as "PIEZO ELECTRIC EFFECT".The nano generators comprises of zinc oxide nanowires that can produce tiny pulses of electricity.
If the scientists are successful in this,then we can charge our mobiles,ipod,electronic devices just wearing the jacket etc.
