Lamborghini and MIT team up on electric supercar without batteries | #Research #cars #SuperCapacitors

Lamborghini and MIT team up on electric supercar without batteries | #Research #cars #SuperCapacitors | 21st Century Innovative Technologies and Developments as also discoveries, curiosity ( insolite)... | Scoop.it
Lamborghini is working with engineers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology on a new all-electric supercar that won't have batteries.


Instead, the body of the Lamborghini Terzo Millennio concept car, made from exotic carbon nanotubes, would be used as a supercapacitor. Supercapacitors store and release energy in a manner different from that employed by batteries. They have certain advantages, but also serious disadvantages.


It could be years, if ever, before scientists from MIT and Lamborghini, which is part of the Volkswagen Group (VLKAF), can overcome the downsides. But the effort would be worth it, said Mauricio Reggiani, Lamborghini's head of research and development.

Nanotech Battery Breakthrough Promises 30 Second Smartphone Charging

Nanotech Battery Breakthrough Promises 30 Second Smartphone Charging | 21st Century Innovative Technologies and Developments as also discoveries, curiosity ( insolite)... | Scoop.it
VideoSmartphones are some of the most useful devices we own. However, their battery life leaves a lot to be desired. Even the most power frugal devices need to be charged daily during heavy use - something that many of us have found out to our cost. However, it's not just capacity [...]


Imagine, then, being able to charge your smartphone in 30 seconds? This could revolutionize how we use out treasured devices and could mean that their limited battery life isn’t quite as limiting as it is today. Simply find a power socket at home or work if you’re running low, and 30 seconds later you’re ready for that long commute on the train or day trip by the sea or in the mountains. Hopefully we won’t have too long to wait.

Flexible Printed Batteries May Soon Power Wearable Tech

Flexible Printed Batteries May Soon Power Wearable Tech | 21st Century Innovative Technologies and Developments as also discoveries, curiosity ( insolite)... | Scoop.it

A California startup is developing flexible, rechargeable batteries that can be printed cheaply on commonly used industrial screen printers. Imprint Energy, of Alameda, California, has been testing its ultra-thin zinc-polymer batteries in wrist-worn devices and hopes to sell them to manufacturers of wearable electronics, medical devices, smart labels and environmental sensors.
