Energy is something we take for granted, because we just plug things into the wall, and it feels as inevitable as air. The best-known wearable energy-harvesting tech today is, of course, solar, which pulls down electrons from sunlight or ambient light. But solar is just the opening gambit. Leveraging watch tech for…bisons?
