Jacket Powers Gadgets With Your Hot Body

You know how in the Matrix humans were grown in farms to harvest bodies to power machines? The kids at Berkeley Lab are making a jacket that does the same thing, but it powers gadgets like laptops and mobile phones instead of futile resistance to Keanu Reeves. Basically they’re going to interlace thermo-electric silicon nanowires with the fabric, and they’ll transform excess hotness into energy. Send these to Adam Frucci, and our energy problems are over.
