At the recent InterBattery 2015, an event showcasing all the latest technological solutions in the field of batteries and held in Seoul, Korea, Samsung presented the prototype of a whole new line of batteries that fold like ribbons, capable of providing over 50% energy to wearable devices such as smartwatches.
The “striped” battery is designed to fit just like fabric, while still offering high energy density. The first prototypes were integrated directly into watch straps, but the fields of application in the near future are boundless: necklaces, rings, bracelets, t-shirts: the era of the power bank is coming to an end. Annoyed by the need to always carry a 'box' of extra energy with us, we will gladly accept the fact of charging our clothes to find ourselves the next day with a reserve of energy capable of making all our technological gadgets work :)
