Energy-scavenging PVDF nanofibers that could be woven into clothing and textiles

Engineers have created energy-scavenging nanofibers that could one day be woven into clothing and textiles in a research by University of California, Berkeley. These nano-sized generators have "piezoeelectric" properties that allow them to convert into electricity the energy created through mechanical stress, stretches and twists, leading to wearable 'smart clothes' that can power hand-held electronics through ordinary body movements.
