With all the rage lately about fuel cells, here's a technology that is up and coming. Power Paper has developed an ultra-thin battery that can generate 1.5 volts of power. The company uses printers to put down zinc and manganese dioxide in inklike layers on a wide variety of backings, including paper and plastic, essentially creating batteries less than a millimeter thich. Each power source throws off 1.5 volts and has a shelf life three years, the same as common dry cell batteries.
Power Paper's thin batteries will one day drive wearable computeres and many as-yet-unimagined products.
Is that a PPC in your pocket or a credit card? With the development of computerized clothing, wearable computers and disposable cell phones, this ultra-thin battery technology is likely to have widespread applications
