The latest in nanotechnology: researchers have developed
a device that draws power from human blood glucose and generates
enough electricity to illuminate a light bulb (about 100 watts).
The device, called the "bio-nano" generator, imitates
the way the body generates energy from food. The generator
could ultimately be used to run devices inside the human body,
or so-called "sugar-fed robots."
