Novel E-Tattoo

Caption

Boise State University researchers designed a novel E-tattoo made from PVBVA fibers coated with Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene to harvest energy directly from the human body, providing power for itself. The research demonstrates the E-tattoo's capability for charge storage and its potential for health monitoring through integrated ECG and EMG sensing, all within a single system that adheres directly to the skin.
