White House announces new AI initiatives at Global Summit on AI Safety

The SunScout Pro harnesses the sun’s power through its stacked solar panels that deploy to ensure quick and efficient charging.

Harvesting energy from rainWe have witnessed artificial leaves that use a similar technique to create electricity from wind.Researchers in Italy have engineered an artificial leaf that can be embedded within plants to create electricity from raindrops or wind.

the researchers are working on improving the performance of their artificial leaf through design modifications such as the shapes of the electrodes and the materials chosen.This shows that environment-responsive biohybrid technologies can be tailored to produce electricity in challenging settings.It functions extremely well under rainy or windy conditions to light up LED lights and power itself.

a researcher studying bioinspired soft robotics at the Italian Institute of Technology (IIT) in Genoa.we significantly advance this technology by establishing the additional opportunity to convert kinetic energy from raindrops hitting the upper surface of the artificial leaf into electricity.

It was recently demonstrated that plant leaves coupled with artificial leaves of selected materials and tailored mechanics can convert wind-driven leaf fluttering into electricity.

we integrated an extra electrification layer and exposed electrodes on the free upper surface of the wind energy harvesting leaf that allow to produce a significant current when droplets land and spread on the device.Mashable Light SpeedWant more space and science stories in your inbox?Sign up for Mashables weekly Light Speed newsletter.
