Geee Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Daily Mail: The revolutionary technology behind 3D-printed car parts, food and guns can also be used to print batteries smaller than a grain of sand. Scientists have used a 3D printer to make linthium-ion microbatteries that can fit into tiny devices that had previously stumped engineers looking to power them for longer periods. The batteries were constructed from interlaced stacks of tiny battery electrodes, which conduct electricity, that are each smaller than the width of a single human hair.

Aren't we making some assumptions here? 3-6 neurons....at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
