Look for Motion 2 Energy to announce their development of the first mobile device external charger on Monday. This charger would work to charge devices by means of using energy caused by motion that is converted into electricity.
This device would work by using electromagnetic induction. In essence, if a magnetic field moves through wire, electricity is generated. Motion 2 Energy will harness the electromagnetic waves that people generate just by moving throughout the day.
To put this into numbers, the Motion 2 Energy charger can generate up to 60 minutes of cell phone talking time for every six hours of motion you make. This is so cool because it’s harnessing a previously untapped energy source. Expect to see Motion 2 Energy to hit the market sometime in early 2009.
