Why can’t I just power my phone with my body? I eat way more food than I need to, why can’t the excess calories charge my phone?
>>108496884great idea. you first need to figure out how to connect your phone battery to your body though. i think you should start your experimentation by putting a fork into a power socket.
>>108496884> why can’t the excess calories charge my phone?Because you need to exercise, you fat fuck.Stop dreaming! Work work work that fat ass!
>>108496884It would be far easier using kinetic energy. You'd have to run on a treadmill hooked up to a generator.Considering you're a fat fuck, this sounds difficult.
I’m eating ice cream while you guys call me fat and not answer my question.
>>108497084Humans create enough energy to charge a phone. But scientists don't believe it would be possible to harness that much energy from the human body. We are not very efficient.I've been doing some looking into it. They're working on technologies that could power small implants or watches. But it's quite unlikely we'll just be able to plug a power cord into our brain and get power.Pretty much all of the power we produce is used for vital purposes anyways. Thinking, breathing, having functioning organs, etc.
The only way to passively tap energy off a human without harming it is to get at its waste heat. Unfortunately this heat comes in the form of infrared radiation which is hard to collect and is only useful across a temperature gradient which you may not be able to maintain with less energy than you're collecting. On the other hand, crank powered flashlights and radios are still sold, with batteries of course. So it depends on your requirements.

>>108496884Because the energy that your body can use is stored in/available through:Fat->Glucose->Adp/AtpSo unless you want to actively turn a crank eith your arms or legs like a barbarian, you'd need to access it directly from one of those systems and convert it to an electrical potential. Let's go for glucose:You could add a dialysis type device to filter a bit of glucose out of your blood constantly, and then...well, we'd still need to convert that into electricityLuckily, actually intelligent people have already looked into that:https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38386577/
>>108499767>filter a bit of glucose out of your blood constantlySo basically a robot vampire.
>>108497110>We are not very efficient.we are extremely efficient you dunce
>>108496884Yes, your body outputs enough energy to power a phone.Whether you want to cover yourself with, like, a thermoelectric generator is however very dubious. I mean, you decide, but it doesn't seem sensible to me.
