The articles hype this technology as a way to power implanted medical
devices like pacemakers, but it seems questionable that a patch of skin
will provide enough juice to shock your heart. Anyway, don't they have
inductive charging systems for pacemaker batteries that eliminate the
need for surgery? It seems much more likely that this technology will
be used to power implanted electronic devices (i.e. an rfid chip with a
built-in transponder). Imagine getting chipped and broadcasting your
ID# and current position continually. Your boss will be able to tell if
you're really sick, or if you took the day off to go fishing. The
police won't even have to pull you over, they'll just point a
directional receiver at you, read your ID#, and then mail you a ticket
for speeding. Just think how safe and orderly the world will be! Think
that I'm off my rocker? Check out this link:

Power implant aims to run on body heat
Just think if these chips become mass produced in a few years
and the possible applications for thermo electrics outside the body
as well. Surely a bunch of these could be connected together to
produce usable power for many
devices..ie phones, palm pilots laptops etc. Also could be an
effective way of converting exhaust heat.
