Speaking of how we power our devices, it would be remiss of us not to mention the latest news in the fun-filled world of fuel cells (really — there’s nothing hotter right now). Sony has come up with a cell that runs on anything from fruit juice to Pocari Sweat, converting the glucose therein to electricity.The Bio Battery can be seen on video (at the URL below) powering a desk fan and a Walkman. This presents consumers with an alternative to the more common kinds of fuel cells currently on drawing boards across the world, which typically run on volatile alcohol — an obvious safety headache for developers.
